BMI confusion
Ok so I am getting increasingly confused with this BMI thing. I am in the overweight category which is fine but I have a friend who has the same hip and waist measurement as me and is the same height but is just in the healthy weight bracket. One difference, she has a very small chest and I have a rather large chest. so…
