[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Go to other states. I think in the DMV people are much more fit than the rest of the country. I don't want to pick on the midwest or south, but nearly everyone is obese. And obese is just 30lbs more than your ideal weight. [/quote]

Yes, I think people sometimes have this idea of what obese looks like, but someone who is 5’7” and obese at 195 is not going to look that huge, really (especially if your mental image is 300+).[/quote]

Yup.  I am 5'6" weigh 197 lbs and am clinically obese.  I look like a healthy yet chubby middle aged woman, but according to the BMI charts, I am obese.  [/quote]

Exception 2

This is just this thread. I probably didn’t even find them all. Everybody is an exception. It comes up every time BMI is discussed. [/quote]

Ok let me rephrase: an exception to what? These posters both admit they’re obese so how are they claiming to be an exception in a thread asking if a lot of people are obese?[/quote]
