you should google "waist to hip circumference". This is a much healthier measure of health than BMI which doesn't take into consideration bone structure, muscle, etc. There are plenty of people walking around with healthy BMIs that are flabby. Many are discounting BMI as a 100% indicator of health.

Wildthingsmom....i have seen a woman from England do the same thing (televised documentary)...I don't think that type of experiment can be equated to those people who are obese and struggle with their weight.
