[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Define overweight? I mean - look at that female rugby player. She is technically "overweight" by BMI but she's 100% more in shape than most people on the planet. [/quote] This. Is the person overweight for their particular genetic package of bone structure, build, etc.? We're a family of tall, broad-shouldered, heavy-frame women. We're all "overweight" but DD who is very active, lifts weights, etc is certainly healthier than I am with sporadic exercise and more pounds than I'd like. Even if I was perfectly disciplined in eating and exercise I'd still be overweight by the BMI metric unless I was willing to starve myself down to a completely unreasonable weight for my body. Even with more pounds than I'd like, my blood pressure, heart rate, blood work are all great. [/quote]
