Whats your BMI (Body Mass Index)?

[Xander562]

i think i'm the skinniest one here...

15.2
WOW!
i'm ~6'2" and ~118-120lbs (it varies depending on when i ate last) and i, like other people eat constantly and more than anyone else in my family.

but then again i do have grave's disease ( overactive thyroid ) so my metabolism is SUPER fast, like a hummingbird , I'm sure a year ago it would have been even less... i really need to gain weight....

23.8



I'm 6'2 and 185 (or 190 or 180 depending on how much I ate last), and I have a bit of a pudgy stomach, but other than that, it sounds about right.

25.7

I don't take much stock in these calculators though. If you looked at me you would think I was skinny. Got a little bit of muscle, especially my legs, which i think might skew my numbers a little bit.

Yeah, that's right. I am very skinny, and while my figure isn't very high because I'm tall, its still higher than I would expect. This calculation doesn't seem to take muscle weight into account.

An even 20. I'm 6'2" and 154lb.

 

[Miguey]

[Jaffa Cake]

18.9 – just scraping in on the lower end of OKishness.

 

[Bobdude161]

18.9. 6' 11" and 143 lbs (only cuz I just took a dump just a while ago, musta been 2 lbs!!)
with a VERY HIGH metabolism.

 

[dextertangocci]

20.9

 

[G5Unit]

14 years old, 5' 8", 126 pounds, 19.2

In the past half year I gained 15 pounds of muscle, I was wayyy underweight.

 

[IEatApples]

I got 21.1 = Normal

However if the muscles aren't taken into account then I may be something else... (a freak of nature )
My arm muscles have gotten much more attention than my legs, but I'm planning on changing this, this year.

According to the BMI, Ian Thorpe, gold-medalist Australian swimmer, is obese.

Which is why these things can actually be dangerous... I'm at about 13% body fat (professionally measured) but these online measurements would tell me that I'm at 31% (obese).



And my doctor worries that I am too thin right now (I do need to put a few pounds back on).

20.4 for me, BMI.

When I was in hospital, they took my heart rate (before the op) to check everything was ok.. I have a resting heart rate of 48, which they said was very low. 38 is pretty mad..

well you get a real resting heart rate when you first get out of bed. so mine wouldn't be 38 after eating, or doing stuff all day. but it's a good way to see how good of shape you're in

5'9 (female), 18 years old, 122 pounds, BMI 18.0

 

[worriedmac]

At the beginning of summer I was just short of 30 and now I'm 27.2. I ran into financial troubles and had to lose my babybelly. Oh well the new year beckons.

Ok, cool.. I'll give it a try tomorrow morning. That is, of course, if I'm not in a mad rush to get somewhere, as I've overslept.

Which is unlikely.

 

[eva01]

ooo I have gone up a bit i was originally 16

now i am

*drum roll*

18.4 Which is still underweight and i have gained about 20 pounds

 

[gadgetgirl85]

25 yaay used to be around the 29 mark so I'm happy...its not a good indicator though I muscle train a lot and muscle weighs more than fat. That is why Ian Thorpe is obese!

 

[Leraste]

16.9 - Underweight, surprise surprise.

 

[0098386]

18.5 I think mine was. as the page was loading I tried to remember before seeing any numbers. 18 came to mind.

I eat well and keep fit. by well I mean 3 meals a day, nothing insanely fatty or chemical loaded

today I had Marks and Spencers Triple Chocolate Cereal in full fat milk (heaven, haha). Bacon butty for dinner (fat removed). potatoes in milk with sweetcorn and home made chicken in breadcrumbs. lovely.

alright.....but make sure to count for the whole minute. it's more accurate than just counting for part of a minute and then multiplying

20.4!

 

[javierbds]

I was 36 BMI on January (dislipemia diagnosed)
I am 32 BMI right now
And I hope to be 28 BMI by the end of the year
It will take me another year to get to my desired 25 BMI

By the way if I had 23 BMI I would be anorexic ...

 

[Abstract]

It says I'm in the middle of the healthy range (22.9), but I am Chinese and these scales don't mean anything for asian people, so a Chinese person being in the middle of the healthy weight range probably means that I'm an old obese bald man with a long beard and one mole on his face with hair growing out from it.

I have a six pack - in that cooler
