Can You Really Be Healthy At Any Size?

Is it really possible to be metabolically healthy if you are overweight, or obese, without a lot of muscle?

Yes. I am sure it is possible, but it is not very likely and the degree to which it is possible all depends on your criteria for what is metabolically healthy. It wouldn’t be a bet I would make personally, but even if someone is overweight or obese and metabolically unhealthy, it looks like being in a caloric deficit and/or high amounts of physical activity may allow someone to become transiently metabolically healthy for 24 to 48 hours.

This probably sounds very complicated so let’s dig in.
