Here Is the result I came up with. Skinny: They are faster, not as big targets, can postion themselves better, more heat tolerant, require less food. Fat: Can take more bullets, prob better in hand to hand combat, can handle cold water better, can go longer with less food. Anything else youd like to add?

I'm a fatter person, I can still run am still fit. I work out and body build, don't mind the heat. Think I would win by sitting on them lol.

Would lose by the fact that bI have to eat regularly.

My money is on the thin people. Yes as you say, thin people would be faster, have more energy, hide more easily & be able to position themselves & move around more easily.

However I disagree that heavyset people could "take more bullets"! A bullet will kill anyone. Doesn't matter how much flesh you have, it will get through. I doubt they would be better in hand to hand combat because they'd become winded easily. Thin people can be fast, energetic & wiry. They're often a jangle of nerves. As far as handling cold water better, I'm not sure about that. The skinny ones may whine about the cold more but I bet they could swim a lot farther & hold their breath longer. Also, fat people can not go long without food, that's how they got heavy. Thin people can go without. That's why they're thin. The heavier you are, the sooner you get hungry. Your craving for food can be an inconvenience. Thin people don't feel the need to eat as much. Of course I suppose they would waste away to skeletons eventually while the heavier ones have a little more fat to live off of.

You just never know.

I had a friend who weighed little more than 100 lbs & guys twice his size were terrified of him when he got angry.

Sumo wrestlers are massive. I suppose sheer mass could be used as a weapon. Just sit on the skinny ones.

Anyway, I don't think this war is going to happen! The bottom line is it depends on the individual. There could be very strong and strong-willed people who are either slim or heavy who would beat the odds no matter what.

Of course, mesomorphs (mid-weight, muscular build) would make better warriors than ectomorphs (small) or endomorphs (large).

Strange question. At least it took my mind off my problems for a moment.

It would also depend on how much muscle you have. Being skinny doesn't mean you'll beat a fat person. It's like saying boys will always beat up girls. Some girls are a little tougher than boys. It's all in the muscle not weight, gender, or anything else.

fat people can stay in cold for a long time and not feel cold as much as skinny people but a war is in a hot place, fat will just be more tired and then the skinny wins.

The fat folks would win. There are more overweight people in society than thin people. One on one, a fat person could sit on a skinny person and squash them. As far as running goes, yeah, the skinny person would have the advantage.

Fat people will be like mountains which can withstand any weapons, then just go ahead and sit on top of the skinny ones and that will eliminate them and end the battle.

The fat ones would because they will eat the skinny ones along with all the other food.

Well, you've really thought this out. From a very simplistic view--skinny people might be in better shape for fighting, but the fat folk could just sit on 'em and squash 'em!! :D

Centuries ago, "Skinny" and "Fat" were actually understood to mean the same thing ....... As we understand the conditions today, Fat will always win, Guaranteed by the Laws of Physics .......
