    don't panic just exercise and stay fit ..

    this size thing does wind me up...

    All persons who are obese or overweight should try not to gain additional weight. In addition, those who are obese or who are overweight with other risk factors should consider losing weight. A complete health assessment by a physician is the best way to decide the right steps for you.

    Whatever your BMI, talk to your doctor to see if you are at an increased risk for disease and if you should lose weight. Even a small weight loss (just 10% of your current weight) may help to lower the risk of disease.

    Physical activity and good nutrition are key factors in leading a healthy lifestyle and reducing risk for disease.

    Common Myths
    Myth: BMI Measures Body Fat

    Two people can have the same BMI, but a different percent body fat. A bodybuilder with a large muscle mass and a low percent body fat may have the same BMI as a person who has more body fat because BMI is calculated using weight and height only.

    These men have the same height, weight, and BMI, but may have different percent body fat.

    6'3" Height 6'3"
    220 lbs Weight 220 lbs
    27.5 BMI 27.5



    This is a good reminder that BMI is only one piece of a person's health profile. It is important to talk with your doctor about other measures and risk factors. (e.g., waist circumference, smoking, physical activity level, and diet.)


    Myth: BMI is a diagnostic tool

    BMI alone is not diagnostic. It is one of many risk factors for disease and death. As a person's BMI increases the risk for many diseases increases as well.

    can't remeber hearing that being regarded obese on this chart does not mean you need to lose weight just have an inner core of fitness being slim and unfit is just as bad...

    obese frightens people i suppose just another nasty label... fat is 'old' , obese and MORBIDLY obese wow they shock...

    SORRY ABOUT GETTING .......ERM HEAVY

    there was a time where being round was very in fashion... maybe that'll come back. and i think it will. or maybe its just because i have curves and everyone at school is following that.. not only here, but women liek jennifer lopez who has alot of followers are being mroe liek her...

    we are all beautiful. you are beautiful too.

    its all in your mind.
