[QUOTE="Phub, post: 993125, member: 135068"] What's the significance of BMI when men like Arnold Schwarzenegger and Lawrence Dallaglio have weight-height ratios registering as obese. I don't think I would tell them they are 'fat'! Would you? :blackeye:. Surely it would be better to asses a person's percentage of fat as a more reliable indicator of obesity. (But really, when it comes down to it, all we need to do is strip off and look in a full length mirror. (Or catch a surprise glimpse of ourselves on a video; as I did recently at a wedding!) That soon tells you if you are 'big'. [/QUOTE]
