    Unfortunately in this country is seems that a little "plumpness" or "meat on the bones" is seen as healthy and a person who is fit and has a low fat percentage, i.e. very lean, especially when wearing a normal amount of clothes, seem thin and unhealthy. I get this all the time at 6'1 and 195 lbs. Everyone seems to automatically associated thin with anorexia, and I guess medical professionals are no different.
    This seems to be the case actually!
