    Lol Mrs T.I would have had to tell them that it just showed how misleading BMI ratings could be.

    I didn’t really know how a persons BMI was calculated so i googled it.There are so many reasons that you can get false ratings that i dont see how it can be classed as reliable.Seems to me it has more loopholes than one of Annette’s cardies. :wink:

    *Cough* :lol:

    “I saw the report earlier in the week about overweight people having to pay more for plane flights etc, seems we might all have to be a size zero to qualify for a standard ticket if this experience is anything to go by!”

    Whilst travelling once, our suit-case was 1.5kg ‘over’. They wanted to charge us £40 extra! I explained to the lady that my husband had just lost 3st in weight – she let us off!! pmsl (wasn’t true at all – but try it if it happens to you!!). :lol:

    I think facts and figures are utter tripe…

    My BMI tells me I am obese but at 5 ft 10 when I was in the weight range on the health experts chart I was so thin my collar bones stuck out etc… its all about how someone looks and how high their cholestrol is and how healthy they are and where they carry their weight that matters not what a chart says..
    My BMI is too high if you believe the charts but with an hourglass shaped figure, low cholestrol and a relatively healthy disposition am not bothered in the least!

    Throw away the charts!
