Two women, (one 250 pounds, 5′6″, 40.3 BMI, the other 120 pounds, 5′5″, 20 BMI), spent five hours under a state-of-the-art open scanner to get a high resolution magnetic resonance imaging scan (MRI)
Whoaaaa, fat people strong!
|
These images are really disturbing lol, but I can't see where this could be going in regards to discussion. Just pointing out how fat people are fat?
|
yeah I'll definitely take the 120 lb woman. I definitely have a thing for skinny girls.

What's surprising to me is the fat one doesnt appear to have much more muscle.

Yeah but to be skinny you can work that muscle mass in too....that much extra fat with almost zero extra muscle is disgusting.

I want that. I don't eat fast food(okay very rarely like once a month at most and generally something like panda express orange chicken + rice), and haven't been to a McDonalds in over 10 years

Fat bodies exist both "externally" as well as internally .

And jesus christ, look at the ankles on the 250lb chick. Wonder how she can even walk with those.
|
fat people are disgusting...
|
Aren't those her eyes? The fat woman is facing forward, and you're seeing the skinny woman from behind?
That's what it looks like from the elbows/spine/etc.
|
i was mislead by the thread title... i thought this was going to be some UFC event between a skinny arse woman and some fat chick :o
but either way, the picture of the fat woman's stomach is disturbing. is that really crap in her tummy, and is it only there because she's fat(and not for some alternative reason?)
:S
|
It's not the obvious amounts of fat that scare me...it's more like the thin layer around the heart...that is kind of disturbing to me.
|
edit: nvm i read all of thread
|
It's not her fault the fat has taken over her brain and forces her to eat the fast foods!
|
Haha, not too many people here are familiar with reading MRIs
- They are her Eyes, not fat deposits in the brain. The reason the other girl doesnt have them is because her snapshot is taken a little bit further backwards where her eyes arent.
- Air shows up black on an MRI. Notice how the lungs are black (apart from the one on the right who seems to have snipped a bit of the lung wall. This means that the area in the intestines is air, not poop (although there probs is a bit in there anyway)
- Muscle mass and stuff is nothing compared to the difference in the size of the larger ones heart. If you look at it, it is enlarged as it has had to grow to push the blood around a much bigger body. This can lead to many heart problems.
- I once dissected the leg of a women who was overweight. There was a shitload of fat. Look at that picture and imagine what it was like 
|
Our cadaver in gross anatomy is overwieght. Its much more than it appears even on the MRI!

240 pounds means your a fatty. plain and simple, no two ways about it.
EDIT - for an average person, not an athelete or body builder type, who make up the weight in muscle
|
^ 240 pounds means you are overweight, no exceptions.
The exceptions, however, are....

The fatter chick might have stronger muscles, but the skinnier chick has a stronger neck.

The fat woman`s ankles are pretty disturbing. Definitely a motivation for overweight people to get their shit together (whooooops).

Did you not read the thread at all?
Both subjects are women, and the dark areas in the MRI are air.
|

|
