Don't read too much into this. My other half is a Doctor and they say its not the be all and end all but just a guide! i.e. doesn't take into account muscle build! Muscle is heavier than fat. Fact! I was 25! Probably less but I don't work in stones and pounds so I over estimated my weight cos unlike the BBC website I'm metric cos I work in the 21st century not stuck back in the old days. It'll be pounds shillings and pence next along with cwt (hundred weights)! What is a hundred weight anyway? The weight of a bag of coal or bag of spuds from the good old days? Rant over Ahhhhhhh Andrew |

Your BMI result is:
27.91 You are in the overweight range. should read 27 (6'2", 15st) usually, which is still overweight (apparently) I wouldn't say I was overweight, being a plasterer in the building trade does build you up a bit, muscle weighs more than fat etc.. Edited by Rhys |

Your BMI result is:
32.37
You are in the range that is classified as obese and your health would greatly benefit from a life-long reduction in weight. LOL, anyone who has met me would surely agree that there is no way i am obese!!! I'm a big dude, i am 17 1/2 stone and 6ft 1, according to this i would need to be 12 stone to be in the "healthy" catagory, lol. Again, for the guys who know me, imagine if i lost 5 1/2 stone, imagine how rediculous i would look! i would look completely anorexic......... Take the BMI with a pinch of salt....oh no better not i am trying to cut down LOL!
