This needs reworked badly
18.5 (which in my terms for an adult is not healthy at any height) - 25....
These standards do need changed.
I added my BMI up and I'm still classified as overweight for less then a half a point for my height and build. I've lost probably over 85lbs in the last year and a half, I'm in a freakin size 8 in jeans, and I've had to drop a size in shirts and in my bra (seriously? @-@) how the hell am I by medical standards overweight? Yes there are a few areas I still need to tighten up but they are the hard areas to work at but I mean really the BMI is calling me overweight and yet when I look in the mirror I look like I lost another person almost.
This doesn't bring up the fact that women need a certain about of fat percentage to survive and look healthy otherwise its skin and bone showing. This also doesn't bring up the build of a person's body. Athletic, Slim, Long or Short Legged, Long or Short Torso.
This woman is correct in the fact that the BMI standards need to be overlooked or reworked.~~~ Fitness Blogger Takes BMI Standards to Task
