6.1 Body-Condition Change Index
Canine Fat-Based Metabolism
This page is structured as definition, control variables, causal chain, observable outputs, and boundary, and serves as a canonical definition node in Canine FBM.
Body-condition change should be decomposed into fat reserve, lean tissue, energy continuity, and tolerance variables.
Body-Condition Change Index traces outputs back to variables and system state, not execution advice.
Fatty-acid contribution and protein pressure shape direction of change.
Total energy and activity load shape change rate.
Stool and appetite rhythm validate interpretation paths.
Input architecture → occupancy state → substrate allocation → body-condition output.
Backtrace conclusions must include tolerance and clinical boundaries.

Single weight changes cannot be equated with stable body condition.
Low-energy decline must not be written as structural success.
