Best Answer

undernutrition


Well, vocabulary wise, the opposite of obese is emaciated. There's a few ways someone can become emaciated.

One of the ways is an eating disorder, such as Anorexia or Bulimia. Another way is just general poverty and lack of access to food. Hyperthyroidism and other conditions where the metabolism speeds up could also cause someone to be emaciated, but people can usually adapt to these.

All of these ways culminate into one thing - Malnutrition.
