Thin, emaciated (4)

I believe the answer is:

bony

'thin' is the first definition.
(similar in meaning)

'emaciated' is the second definition.

(Other definitions for bony that I've seen before include "Osseous" , "With skeleton showing through" , "[GAUNT] ?" , "Skeletal" , "Angular" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
