BMI calculated from height and weight is stupid and inaccurate. I’m about 5’9” but pushing 200lbs because I work out and have muscle mass. That gives me a BMI of about 29. By their definition overweight, almost obese. Bwaa haa haa.


But it is a number. And a number can be put into a computer. Garbage in and garbage out.................

Wonder how much we will have to pass under the examination table to get a “socially acceptable” weight entered into the fed database?

Our payments from daddy fed might depend on it, right?
