actually it's 29.1 BMI. it's not a percent of how much body fat you have, that is something different. Body fat is a percentage but you'd probably have something higher than 29% (but not necessarily) if you are in the overweight category:

I don't see where she said anything about body fat. She said BMI.
GREAT JOB!!!! I can't wait until I hit the overweight mark and am no longer considered obese.0
