"(kg)/(m)^2=(lbs/2.2)/("/39)^2"

(215/2.2)/(72/39)^2=(97.73)/(1.85)^2=(97.73)/(3.42)=28.57

Whoops - about 29. I forgot to square the denominator. LOL. That will teach me to get a degree in math. LOLOLOL

It is STILL junk. I am in no way obese.

As I said, it one indicator that is used along with others. Any good BMI site/literature will you that. And 29 isn't rated as obese anyway.
