Dan Gould Posted August 27, 2003 Report Posted August 27, 2003 Now that I remember what BMI is, there t'ain't no way I'm calculating it, let alone sharing it! Quote
RDK Posted August 27, 2003 Report Posted August 27, 2003 Not that this will shock anyone, but it looks like I haven't been "normal" in over ten years! Quote
J Larsen Posted August 27, 2003 Report Posted August 27, 2003 I don't know how accurate this thing is, but I registered normal. Quote
Rooster_Ties Posted August 27, 2003 Report Posted August 27, 2003 Well, if I could just loose 5 or 10 lbs, I'd be in the "overweight" category (just barely). -_- Quote
David Ayers Posted August 27, 2003 Report Posted August 27, 2003 On BMI I am overweight, but on the machine that detects the ratio of fat to muscle I am in the top 5% of the population. What I don't understand about BMI is that it has nothing whatever to say about what the weight is. So a guy who is all fat comes out the same as one who is all muscle. Can anyone explain this? Quote
Claude Posted August 27, 2003 Report Posted August 27, 2003 According to that calculator, I´m normal in the morning and overweight in the evening. Is this permanent fluctuation dangerous? Quote
rockefeller center Posted August 27, 2003 Author Report Posted August 27, 2003 The BMI can't be taken too seriously. Quote
BERIGAN Posted August 27, 2003 Report Posted August 27, 2003 Yes!!! I am the only one overweight so far!!!! Quote
RDK Posted August 27, 2003 Report Posted August 27, 2003 According to that calculator, I´m normal in the morning and overweight in the evening. Is this permanent fluctuation dangerous? Claude, I think it's because you gain a few inches in your sleep... Quote
connoisseur series500 Posted August 27, 2003 Report Posted August 27, 2003 What this--a poll to find fat fucks? I came out normal but on the high side. Quote
Rooster_Ties Posted August 27, 2003 Report Posted August 27, 2003 I am not a fat-fuck!!!! (although I probably am a lard-ass. ) Quote
catesta Posted August 27, 2003 Report Posted August 27, 2003 a poll to find fat fucks? Did we really need a poll for this? B) Quote
JSngry Posted August 27, 2003 Report Posted August 27, 2003 What the hell does any of this have to do with music publishing? Quote
jazzbo Posted August 27, 2003 Report Posted August 27, 2003 Heaven help me if I have to take an ASCAP test! I'm just into the overweight category. Oh joy oh joy. That damned Ben and that damned Jerry! Desk jockeying the last seven years hasn't helped. . . but I'll be back in Elvin Jones' like shape in no time. . .once I retire! Quote
vibes Posted August 27, 2003 Report Posted August 27, 2003 I've lost 75 lbs since January, and I'm still overweight. Ouch... Quote
JohnJ Posted August 28, 2003 Report Posted August 28, 2003 (edited) Normal. It's nice that at least one thing about me is normal. Edited August 28, 2003 by JohnJ Quote
Parkertown Posted August 28, 2003 Report Posted August 28, 2003 I'm at 27.3 Shit, tell me something I don't know... I gotta get on the Precor... Quote
rockefeller center Posted August 28, 2003 Author Report Posted August 28, 2003 hey, howsabout a metric BMI service? Follow the BMI calculator link and scroll down. Quote
Dan Gould Posted August 28, 2003 Report Posted August 28, 2003 metres and centimetres? Dots and commas? I wouldn't be so quick to presume normalcy, my friend! Quote
Dan Gould Posted August 28, 2003 Report Posted August 28, 2003 Was that before or after he slugged the Clemson player? Quote
Noj Posted August 28, 2003 Report Posted August 28, 2003 Whoooa Nelly, officially overweight here. I thought 6'1" 195 would be normal. Time to cut back on the Baja Fresh and In-N-Out Burger. Quote
Eric Posted August 28, 2003 Report Posted August 28, 2003 I think this thing is screwed. I am 41, 5' 11" weigh 205 and and on the obese side of "overweight" according to the calculator. I work out 5-6 times a week and eat no junk. In short, I am in pretty damn good shape. The calculator infers that I would have to weigh 175 to be at the top end of normal. It 'aint ever gonna happen.
