Do you have some sort of scientific or medical literature you can cite to
substantiate yet another one of your wild assertions?

In this case, I think he's correct. I'm recovering from a cancer that
required extensive surgery (removal of my esophagus) and I nearly died
after burning through the little fat I had in reserve. After the fat
gets used, your muscles go next. If I'd had more reserve fat, I'd
probably have had an easier time of recovery, and not had such a lack
of energy due to difficulty eating.
