This is what I have heard about the BMI scale. All of the figures were worked out about 50 years ago when many people were mal-nourished. And basically the charts have just not been updated since. (thats what I heard btw).

Wow, I'm actually considered overweight!! Yay!!! I'm so used to having it appear as "obese" that I stopped doing it a while ago... I only have like, 2.4 points to "normal"!!! Ok, so this *is* after over 120lbs... I like that link!! But umm.. it's kinda odd that it doesn't ask whether you're a boy or a girl to calculate it, don't you think??

And another annoying / frustrating / stupid thing about BMI scales and calculators is that it doesnt take into account muscle! Muscle weighs more than fat, yet isnt fat! See if you can get your body fat % measured instead, thats far more reliable.

Yeah, my BF is in like, amazing shape, and that link says that he's about .5 away from being overweight since he's so muscular.

I did some measurement thing online one time and that was the result. It was what got my butt in gear, I kept thinking I could get it down to just "obese" and at least I wouldn't be killing myself, I would just be really fat.
