[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Obesity is heavily linked to poor health.  Even 20 - 40 pounds overweight is linked to poor health markers particularly in the 40 pound number OP mentioned.[/quote]

True, but being mildly overweight is associated with better health.

You don’t know where OPs wife started.

If she’s 5’2” and started at 100 lbs, and is now 140lbs, she is barely overweight.  To be obese, she would have had to be overweight to start with.  
[/quote] Huh?  At 5'2" that is about 30 pounds overweight.[/quote]

No. 135 pounds is a normal BMI at 5 foot two. Look it up.[/quote]  Overweight starts at 136.  https://www.bmi-chart.info/

Not that I need a chart to tell me a 5'2" woman is overweight at 140.  And women that short do NOT carry that weight well at all.[/quote]

The BMI standard is really quite forgiving. My wife is 5'6" and 120. I remember when she was mid pregnancy and got up to 140. She was... a big girl. I can't imagine someone 5'2" thinking they're any semblance of healthy at that weight. Wife felt HUGE at 140.[/quote]

I’m 5’6 and 180 and not that overweight[/quote]You are at least 40 pounds overweight.[/quote]

No. I[b]f you look at a BMI calculator[/b], people who are 5”6 are considered normal weight until 154 pounds. 155 pounds at 5”6 is a BMI of 25 which is where the “overweight” category begins. So the PP is about 25 pounds overweight. Not 40.[/quote]And if you look at a woman who is 5'6" and 154, she looks fat.  Because she is.  She should be 130 or 140 at most.  If her genetics blessed her with a really big butt and huge breasts, you can spot her another 10 pounds, but that's it.  "Not that overweight" at 180??  Yeah, OK.[/quote]

"Should be" according to... you? You're messed up. Hope you don't have daughters.

These women are 5'6" and and 155. You really they're fat? You are messed. Up.
