‘Healthy’ obesity is a misleading concept: Study

"More than 51 percent of the healthy obese participants became unhealthy obese over the 20-year study period, while only 11 percent lost weight and became healthy non-obese. The remaining 38 percent stayed in the healthy obese category during the term of the study, while 6 percent of participants originally in the healthy non-obese category became unhealthy obese."
