25 bmi and still sexy. Must be from the beer yea thats it.

25.1, Slightly Overweight

I coulda told anybody that.

24.4 healthy. boh!

Every time I see the horse crap that is BMI I can't help but laugh.

I'm sorry but if you're a 6' 140 lbs male you are not in anything even remotely resembling decent physical condition. You should be 175-190 at a minimum, and if you're serious about keeping in good health your frame could probably easily support another 20 lbs of muscle beyond that (or more, depending on some other physiological differences not measured by height).

Obesity gets all the attention but there are close to as many people who are chronically under-weight.

Yeah I don't know man, it seems like they designed the thing with the assumption that the average person has the musculature of a paraplegic. I mean fuck I don't live in the gym or claim to be in especially great physical condition but in order to get down to their normal weight range I'd have to lose about 15 lbs of muscle on top of getting down to the barest minimum amount of body fat that the human body can survive on.

Does it take into consideration that muscle weighs more than fat?

No, it doesn't. And it seems to assume an absurdly low amount of muscle (for men, at least).

Well at any rate...BMI bullshit or not...I know I'm healthy. This is not the kind of shit I get even remotely worried about. I don't even own a scale!

thats bullshit.. it also depends on your skeletal system and genetics.


I'd say im at the healthiest point in my life right now at 143 lbs 5"11 at an extremely low body fat percentage.

my endurance is pretty high and i can do 1 handed chinups (opposite hand at the shoulder trap area) and bench press at least 40 lbs well over my weight.


BMI doesnt mean didly squat really. It depends on your frame, skeletal structure and genetics. I dont have the skeletal structure to be over 160 lbs. (without serious supplementation)

So dont tell me that being 140 lbs is unhealthy

According to this, Im not healthy at all. My "ideal" weight is between 90 and 110 pounds, and I havent weighed that since I was in junior high. Maybe middle school.

Aaaaaaaaaaaghwhores.

How tall are you, Angie? I think one of my roommates told me if you (female) are 5'0, a good weight = 100 lbs and then 5 lbs for ever inch thereafter if you are of normal frame and build. Are you shorter than 5'0"?

Im 5 feet and three quarters of an inch.

also depends on your frame/ bone structure

BMI is Bullshit Mass Index.

It doesnt take into account things like muscle mass or bone density.

I'm 5'11" at 187lbs, and it says I am slightly overweight.

LOLZ, I am borderline underweight actually.

+ 1

I figure I am out of shape when I look in the mirror when I am in a bikini and I am not happy with what I see. I couldn't care less about "BMI", "averages" and "body fat" shit.

Anyway, mine says I am 20.1. According to the chart, I am perfectly smack dab in the middle of my best weights.

I personally think I need to work out more

18.1, according too this I should be about 20pds heavier *shrug*

all BMI is is weight (kg)/ ((height X height(m))

so theres no special coefficients its just some simple calculation. BMI is used as a constant though to calculate body fat percentages in certain electronic devices.

fuck this shit why can't i put my height and weight in meters and kilos?

BULLSHIT
