How tall are you?

The NHS BMI thing says I should be between 10st 8lb and 14st 5lb - I'm at the higher end of "healthy" with a BMI of 24.3 (6ft 3in). I don't think I'd be healthy if I weighed 10st 8lb like.

About the 6 foot mark exactly.

I normally aim to maintain a weight somewhere between 12 & 13 stone but have let myself go in that respect in the last half a year or so.

Won't take long to get back to 'normal'.

Played football Monday, Tuesday & today so far this week. As well as a decent jog around the local park yesterday.

It's flawed but far from bullshit and it's a decent reference tool.

Find it useful in that its set my target - want to be at the bottom end of the "healthy" range but the actual numbers like are pretty much bull, you cant really say oh this guy has a bmi of 22.9 and this guys is 21.7 and really draw any conclusions about them from that. Opinion like obviously.

I agree it's not everything, but without knowing anything else it's a good reference tool.

I'd imagine that 99.9% of the time, someone with a BMI of 35 will be fatter than a person with a BMI of 25.

I've still got my "aaarrrghhh look at the clip of me!" picture that motivated me into losing weight. Never ever going there again.
