Is this intended to imply something about rationalists?
It says what it says. Obviously if there’s an actual trend it raises some questions, like whether or not rationalists just tend to care less about their health, or if intellectuals find it harder to come up with internal motivation for eating less. It does seem odd to me that rationalists would be more unhealthy than their general demographic given that being physically fit is a good instrumental goal for virtually everything.

BMI 20 here, and people who have just met me sometimes say unprompted that I look athletic.
