Obesity....

[mendhak]

I thought that was moderately amusing but not something that warranted hilarity and howling laughter.

That's really funny.

[BillGeek]

That's really funny.

Unoriginal though...

VBF thrives on banality.

[oceanebelle]

BMI are for those who does not have muscles, they are not very reliable for those who work out since muscle is heavier than fats.

[Valleysboy1978]

Indeed so, which is why I'm at the very edge of the BMI limit.

[BodwadUK]

ah so 5 of my points are muscle and now I am an ideal weight, thanks oceane you provided the best diet ever

[oceanebelle]

well, just in case you work out too much and base your health on BMI...


There is another though, the waste line.. forgot the safe levels though.

BTW bmi is only valid for adults which eliminates a lot of you

[Shaggy Hiker]

I got 47 on that scale....of course, that's partly because I don't know how to convert pounds to stones, so I just used the maximum. Is that correct?

[wossname]

Yes. Thats how the British army do their rations and equipment.

Take a look at this chart. I don't want you to give up on exercising but you probably only burned about 200 calories at that will not result in anything like the loss of a pound.

27 or 28....I forgot in the time it took to scroll down here. The site says I'm in the overweight range. I agree, but I don't particularly care. I guess that makes me lazy and apathetic.

...and might be the reason you're overweight.

yah I am in fact poorer than the rats that feist on leftovers by the sink. they pay me to be this way.

[ZaNi]

26.55... I've been planning to lose weight for a while now... Even if I lost about 10kg (which would put me at 92kg, a weight lower than I've been since I first had my growth spurt (I'm ~195cm or 6'4 for those interested)), I'd still be in the top end of the healthy part of the scale... Given that, though I intend to lose about 5-6kg through a little exercise, I have no intention of trying to hit an "ideal" BMI... I guess I've just got lots of muscle

[Valleysboy1978]

The BMI is only a guideline, so 1 point above is irrelevant, especially for people our height. Fat percentage is probably more useful for our height as it takes muscle into consideration. I'm currently at 12%

Good information. But when we start talking about fat percentages, I immediately think back to the one time I played San Andreas and ate until I had maximum weight... It wasn't that good really, but I wanted to try it. I'm sure I'll lose weight when I finish this job, because I'll have an addition 10 hrs or so to play with for a little while, so I can do all the exercise/streches I've been wanting to do for about 2 months...

[Shaggy Hiker]

Good catch.

By the way, I just hiked 400 miles, how many calories did that burn? I only lost about 20 lbs, and a fair amount of that was muscle.
