Just a rant

I just wanted to complain about one little thing.....BMI....Its stupid lol! I am 5'0, therefore BMI puts me at like 110-120....BUT I am a naturally curvy girl. I am busty, and I have a booty..... 110lbs and I would look absoloutelty insane! This always has driven me nuts.. Im short, not a stick,

    I know what you mean. I'm 5'2 and I am quite busty. There is no way I wouldn't look weird at 130lbs!

    I'm with ya! I think overall it's crap. It doesn't take body frame, bust size, etc. into account. I will be super happy when I am "overweight" hahaha I have about 8 pounds to go!

    Maurice Jones-Drew (NFL fans know who I'm talking about) has a BMI of 32.6... obese. Obviously that's an extreme example, but it just goes to show you how flawed it can be, because the guy is a ball of muscle.

    I agree! I am 5 foot 1 inch. I think I am a healthy weight, but according to my BMI, I am still overweight!!!!! I, too, am "busty" and wish I wasn't ;) Within the last 4 years I have lost 30 pounds, but absolutely NOTHING off my chest...I do not know why it will not get smaller for me?!

    I try not too put too much into the BMI, but it still bothers me that I should be at the MOST 132.
