to:

* Yes, being "big boned" does exist (though it doesn't involve actually having bigger bones). Some people are naturally born with bigger bodies, which tend to hold fat longer.
* Because of its culture, many Pacific Island natives have bigger bodies. This is because, in their culture, being larger is still seen as a sign of wealth. Because of the drive to be a bigger race, many Islanders have the same body type as described above.

Whatever the cause, most of them don't like the term "fat". And some [[BerserkButton really don't like it]]. So if you're going to label somebody as overweight you might want to choose your words a little carefully, because you could end up hurting somebody's feelings, or getting yourself hurt.

This would be TruthInTelevision, definitely. Incidentally, in RealLife, many of these excuses are accurate in at least some cases, such as hypothyroidism.

to:

* As mentioned in the main article, some people tend to put on weight because of metabolical disorders even when they aren't overeaters. Hypothyroidism, hyperinsulinemia and estrogen dominance are just some of the possible conditions where a person can keep gaining weight even if they survive on minimal calories, because these hormonal disturbances make the body store energy as fat to the point where the person can be malnourished, but the energy they consume still gets stored instead of being used as fuel.
