    How tall are you? BMI is crap, but unless you are under 5' 5'' you did the calculations wrong.

    I am close. I am 5'6" and I was 185.6 at the time I did it.

    BMI is crap. Body composition is what you should go by.

    This may be a stupid question...but I get to do that, I am a newb. What is so special about the calipers? I mean, why can't I just go to the hardware store and get a set?

    Edit: They are cheaper on Ebay than the store. Wow. Yay Hong Kong?

    They are less than $10 on Ebay for anyone else wanting a pair who can't find them. If you get them from Hong Kong it is going to take a while to get to you. Probably about a month. I am going to hold off for now and just see how I progress. I should be able to shed this.
