    It apparently does not measure "normal" weight either.

    I hadn't noticed but you used the other 'generator' I used, and quoted from.
    Other factors are taken into consideration.

    • Waist circumference
    • Risk factors for diseases and conditions associated with obesity

    I don't know if you have been to a Dr and he/she has said: 'Well, your BMI states this, so that's enough for me. See you in 10 years.'

    I'm not quite sure what you mean by this.

    The BMI is not an accurate measure of health. It does not take into account individual body chemistry. You can not give a uniform acceptable weight for everyone.

    I assume you mean Bullshit? I have seen that show and I agree with some things, but not others. Some episodes have been one sided, but they admit they have an agenda. The show is about their option and making you laugh, not presenting an unbiased story.
