[SANITY] A genuine example of fat logic. Found it in a video, hosted by a clearly overweight woman, about how BMI is unreliable using an an excuse "obese" world elite athletes.

ive been suffering from disordered eating my whole life and actually never experienced amenorrhea from it! my body fat is around 20% despite being at a 15 bmi, the only reason i dont get them anymore is because im on hormone replacement therapy taking testosterone and even that took about 2 years to work for my bleeding. everybody is super different and what our bodies can handle absolutely varies, i know some people who lose their period when they get to a 20 bmi, but they also lack a lot of fat on their body which is a trend i notice in people who report experiencing that vs people who dont. i remember reading stories of lean women who exercised a lot, yet never dipped into being underweight, and still lost their period so thats why i suspect its more of a body fat thing rather than just being underweight. (btw iirc means if i recall correctly!)
