Waist-Hip Ratio vs. BMI

Thank you for all the responses. I guess the waist-hip thing was interesting to me because it is the only "rough and ready" body measurement that indicated I was in any way "at risk" health-wise at the time that I was diagnosed with T2. So to me, it appeared to have some relevance. But perhaps it's just masochism ... a desire to find an explanation for life events that sometimes don't really have simple reasons.
