    Skinny fat means being lean but having near tummies, legs and arms. It’s common with south asians like in indian subcontinent. It’s mainly caused by unhealthy diets us desi’s have.

        Yes. A lot of desis eat rice, daal, etc and don’t eat much meat. All the oil in gravies and curries is also a thing. And most importantly, they don’t workout. So they aren’t fat nor healthy. Your family is an exception not an example.
