Message: <blockquote data-quote="Jo123" data-source="post: 913467" data-attributes="member: 13144">Just interested in other people's views and experiences on this subject.My waist size measured around my belly button is 32" which is over the maximum 31.5" as on the NHS website.However my BMI is 19 I am 5'8" and weigh 56.5 kgs.Interesting as I could only go down to 55.2 kgs to be in a healthy bmi, and I honestly don't think my waist measurement would be below 31.5, so two contradictory health messages. I think for my waist to go below 31.5" I would have to lose quite a lot of weight and I do exercise.What are other people's experiences of waist size versus bmi.</blockquote>
