Topic: WV Ranks Third in Fat People

[windwalker]

Here we go again--WV third in obesity.   WV's near the top in so many bad things.  A couple of days ago WV was third in illegal drug use.  What the heck is wrong with WV?

My BMI equal 26.9
187 pounds divided by 2.2 pounds in a Kilo =  85
(70" Height divided by 39.37" in a meter) squared = 3.16

85/3.16 = 26.9 BMI

Anything over 27 is overweight and anything over 30 is obese. My range that I use for myself in an attempt to control my health.

Try your height and weight on the calculator on this site and if it says you're overweight click in other numbers until it says normal or so then you'll have an idea.

Gry you at 174 lbs is your ideal weight from that chart. So you are only 1 pound from the mark. That isn't bad at all. 

128 you're underweight. So between 129-174 it's saying you're at your healthy weight.
