A person who, while they have very low weight on the scales, and may look reasonably (or even very) skinny with heavy clothes on, they still have a large amount of body fat compared to muscle, resulting in a flabby appearance. Hence, a skinny (low mass) person, who still looks fat (flabby and untoned).
Often, vegetarians who have no idea where to get non-meat protein-rich foods from, and don't know why it's important, so they end up having no muscle. Especially vegetarian girls which combine the above with eating like a rabbit to "lose weight".
This is your average teenage (or not so teenage) girl who has been misled by hollywood to think that any form of exercise that isn't jogging will make you look like Arnold Schwarzennegger. Usually involves this vicious cycle:
a) "OMG! I look fat!"
b) "I need to eat like a rabbit from now on to lose weight" (myth)
c) "I need to go running every morning to increase my tone" (myth)
d) "I should avoid any other form of exercise because I will bulk up and look ugly instead" (super-myth - in fact it's the opposite)
e) Result: Loss of weight, but more muscle than fat lost, resulting in more fat remaining relative to body muscle (i.e. looking even more flabby and lumpy than before)
f) OMG! I look fat! --> back to a). Also, welcome to the anorexia club.

"How can I look so fat! I weigh no more than my 10-year-old!"
"You're just skinny-fat. You need some more muscle, and then you'll look drop-dead gorgeous again. Stop jogging and starving yourself, and go do some more wholesome exercise instead."

Get the skinny-fatmug. A physique, while not overweight (and possibly underweight), lacks any visible lean, striated tissue.
The term is often NOT used or understood by the uneducated, untrained eye. To the uneducated, untrained eye, a skinny fat female may appear to have a physique of the same caliber as an individual who is comprised of significantly more lean tissue. The term is particularly relevant when discussing women at NASCAR events; the types that may be skinny but have no muscle to speak of. The term is equally important while eating at Denny’s and discussing how unappealing the waitress is.

Untrained eye: "Dude, that chick is so hot."
Trained eye: "Nah, Dogg, that's Amanda Schroeder; she's skinny fat as all hell."
Untrained eye: "What do you mean?"
Trained Eye: "Look at her arms."

Get the skinny fatmug. Also called TOFIs (thin outside, fat inside).
People who doesn't look fat or overweight from the outside (no 'fat folds') and still are considered 'fat' when they are submitted to hi-tech body-scanning techniques (like MRIs), to discover that they are what doctors call 'centrally-obese': having large fat-cells in their vital organs and subcutaneous skin deposits which is high risk for heart disease and can double risk of CDV (cardiovascular disease) in men.

A new relative method to body mass index (BMI) is the Body Volume Index (BVI), which is a faster computer-based digital scan that calculates body-volumes/body fat percentages. Similar techniques to BVI should be made to tell you if you are one of the latest 'fat' category: the 'skinny-fats!
