On a somewhat less disgusting note than my last post, I thought I'd get back to my recent weight gain issues.
When I went to see the doctor about my back, the nurse weighed me. She then plugged my height and weight into a computer program that calculated my BMI. For the first time in my life I am officially "Slightly Overweight" at 6' 4" and 210 lbs.
Maybe I shouldn't have had that second package of cookie dough.

You do know the BMI doesn't take muscle into consideration, right?
;)
I'm 6'5" and 210. The BMI is crap. I know this because I watched a Penn and Teller Bullshit episode that told me so. Take that, BMI.
Anomalie, does the BMI take into consideration the handful of fat that I can grab on my waist? That's what I thought.
Silentkid, Penn and Teller's Bullshit is an awesome show. Although, it was on that show that I very first saw a tramp stamp on a guy, so it gets minus points for that.
LOL!! I can grap a handful of fat too...but it's not on my waist ;-) LOL!!! Hahahahaha!! I crack myself up! Seriously though...I checked my BMI and mine is 23, which is only 2 points away from being overweight..Yours is 25.6 which is only .6 away from being NOT overwieght. We should stop eating out so much...at restaurants I mean. That's it. From now on, we are going to play board games instead of encouraging eachother to be overweight!
At least it's just 'slightly'
so you can continue to eat cookie dough, maybe just not the whole bag.
Oh, you mean the winter-survival fat?
Yeah, it doesn't consider that one either.
(Now you quit shooting down my attempts at cheering you up, damn it!)
