Been trying to google full measurement BMI stuff (with waist and neck), got this particular one from here

Hrm. According to that site's calculations, I should weigh just under 210 pounds.

Yeah, no.

Kevin's BMI is annoyed he IS at 210.

Of course Kevin whines he's gaining weight at 210.

And I keep replying, "Well since I'm 210 and only 5'3....."

Those BMIs are seriously skewed by my husband's opinion

[disgruntledgirl]

He is considered obese at 6'1 210 by some of them.

The fact that there are multipls BMI calculators is reason enough for me to ignore them all.

Here are my guidelines (by which I'm still fat).
1. Sit in a bathtub, fill with water. Struggle to get water under the folds of the torso. Struggle equals 4 tries.

2: Can no longer connect fingers by reaching from top of shoulder down back and reaching around and upwards the back.

And 3 (Which applies to me, not everyone else): have 36 d bust and stomach still exceeds this.

One thing the surprised me when I looked in a mirror: I lifted my shoulder up as part of a workout. In the mirror, though I felt it pressing pretty hard to my neck, it was barely near it.
I use to touch my shoulder to my ear. :(

HEY......... we need to talk Mel into Weekly Water Aerobics
