    28F, how am I at such a low BMI yet seeing zero ab definition? (Mild NSFW)

    Posted: 06 Aug 2020 11:35 PM PDT

    I'm 1.85m tall, weigh 60kg. This puts me at a BMI of 17.5, which actually makes me underweight. I've always been naturally thin, so I never dieted or exercised to get to this point. I've recently started working out though.

    Here's my question, how could be this thin, yet I'm seeing absolutely zero ab definition? Surely my stomach can't have enough fat at this weight to completely hide any definition? My stomach looks completely soft and "weak", which is incredibly frustrating. Here are pics:

    I've been attempting to workout my core and abs recently. It feels like my build puts me at a huge disadvantage? I find most ab exercises extremely difficult - leg raises, planks, etc. I noticed that most of my shorter friends seem to have a much easier time, even though they're also beginners. I can't help but feel that my long arms and legs basically turn ab exercises into torture for me.

    What am I missing here? I'm definitely not over eating. Is there something I could be doing drastically wrong for me to be built this way?

    What the fuck am I doing wrong?

    Sorry for the potty language but I'm super frustrated. I am 33(m) and since Covid I've gone from about 175-190lbs. I have been skinny fat since I was about 25. About 4 weeks ago I decided I was going to figure this shit out and fix myself. Having experienced insecurities about myself for all of my adult life, I really wanted to do this correctly.

    So 4 weeks ago I stopped starving myself, started eating roughly 180-190g protein daily, added 5 days a week of lifting weights, and 4-5 peloton bike rides a week. I'm stretching, eating well, and really trying to change. Unfortunately, since I started working out and eating correctly, I've added another 5lbs, and I look chubbier. Like my stomach looks bigger and bloated after trying to be healthier. I just feel even worse about myself. What is the point of this? Why should I keep doing this when I could just starve myself and at least fit into my clothes.

    Sorry for the rant, I am feeling really bad about myself today and I don't know what to do. Any advice or helpful personal experiences is welcome.
