Thread: I'm obese?!?!

  1. #1

    I'm obese?!?!

    Well almost according to the BMI calculators.

    I know they are skewed in most of our cases but seriously. I'm almost 6 ft. but we'll round down to 5'11" and the BMI calculator says I should weigh below 180?!

    What a testament to how pathetic most of America is...walking around skinny (or fat) with no muscle tone.

    I used to be morbidly obese,I hate how it sounds but its true, so I'm familiar with that bmi. I currently weigh 204lbs at 5'11".They say my ideal weight is 175 or so,so right now by their calculation I'm overweight.If I go passed 207 I"m back to obese, ain't that a bitch! I don't believe in it, cause muscle weighs more than fat so fukk em!

    I had a call from my insurance company last year stating I was a high risk because I was obese. At that time I think I was around 240, 6'3" and 11%bf. I told them my bf% and they said they didn't use that in their calculations. I think I may have finally crossed into the realm of morbidly obese (248 @ 9%) I like the sound of that much better.

    The average person has more fat building up as they age than excess muscle. How old are you and what do you think you should weigh? Also, what do you think your BF is?

    The BMI is flawed, I never use it. Its never good to rely on if you are a BB.

    Thanks, my wife complained when I shaved it. It will take me another year or more to be back to a good size, but I'm persistent.

    Yeah...surprisingly enough I look 100x better as being "obese" than I ever did with a much lower BMI...hm?

    That's enough bro, you've made a great improvement from the last pics I've seen.
    You are really BIG

    And your wife still likes you to keep that fur

    Keep up the great work and keep posting your progress!

    The BMI scale is garbage for anyone who is in good shape, everyone knows that!
