According to the gov't's BMI ratings, I'm obese, too. However, I was recently told that I'm in pretty good shape - by a bicycling buddy who's ridden for most of her 60+ years.
I'd like to lose another twenty pounds or so to get close to 210, but I don't think I look too terribly bad right now. (Considering the compliments I'm paid by female acquaintances, it's not just all in my own mind, either. ;) )
As is their habit, the gov't didn't seem to know what they were talking about when they created those BMI charts. |
