I need to remember that I'm overweight!

I don't always feel overweight. Today I printed out my BMI chart showing that I'm at 26.3 so I need to loose about 10 lbs to be in a healthy weight range. I'm hoping that by hanging it up I can remind myself that I don't want to loose weight strictly for vanity purposes, I need to loose it to be healthy. I'm just putting that out there here where BMI's and weight ranges are the norm, somehow I don't think it would be understood or accepted if I put it on Facebook as my status...
