I agree on the BMI

It is bull shit

It does not take into account the type of body one has.

What I will never understand is womens weights. My daughter is probably 5'3" and when in soccer shape she had no fat at all. The is small breasted yet weighed 120 lbs. I know muscle weighs more than fat. Which is the reason when you start lifting weights you may gain before losing. Anyway how can some of these models that are 5'6" with DD's weight 10 lbs less than my daughter??

I think weight training does a lot to burn calories. I will never get to my mid 20's weight. I tried back around 10 years ago. I was working out in the gym 2 hours a day 5 days a week and then walking briskly on the treatment for over 30 miles a week and still was 15 lbs. from my younger weight. That is the problem from working manual labor and going to a desk job I am afraid
