Fat/Skinny

First, I do not like the word "skinny" to mean thin and/or fit.
Anyway, there is a term for people who are thin but have little or no muscle tone and are not in good physical condition. We refer to them as "skiny/fat."
If that holds, then I must now insist we start using the term fat/skinny or fat/thin for people like me. Yes, I am substantially overwieght, but I just passed the Army's physical fitness test for women. In order to score 100 points for each activity, one must perform 31 pushups in two minutes, 66 situps in 2 minutes, and run 2 miles in under 17:36. I did not score 100 on the run because I came in at 20:15 but that is still a passing performance.
If someone who is small can be skinny/fat, then I can be fat/skinny and the world can kiss my big ol' butt.
