[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most people are SO FAT.  Over 70% of Americans are fat.  That is absolutely INSANE.  And a big chunk are obese too.  Horrifying. [/quote]

Strictly based on BMI, which is literally a ratio of weight and height, with zero other input. It's kind of BS. Even going by that, almost half of that "fat" 70% is between 1 and 10 pounds "overweight."

I hope your feeling of superiority keeps you warm at night, or, alternatively, that your self-loathing is a comfort to you when you are feeling lonely.[/quote]

Ha!

This is where all the overweight and obese people try to trash BMI as being 'inaccurate'.....as if they are chisled Greek specimens with tons of muscle mass.  BMI is wrong is something overweight people say..[/quote]

Not at all. My BMI had me as nearly obese when I was a college gymnast. It became "normal" when I retired and got flabby. I looked way better and was far healthier with an "unhealthy" BMI. [/quote]
