bmi
let's chat about the good old body mass index.
body mass index (BMI) is a measure of body fat based on height and weight that applies to both adult men and women.
BMI categories:
underweight = <18.5
normal weight = 18.5-24.9
overweight = 25-29.9
obese = 30 or greater
calculate yours here.
i fall into the normal weight range. but not as low in the range as i would like.
i don't want to seem like i am obsessing about this. i am just interested in it, and desirous of making some changes.
in case you were wondering.
