Bmi doesn't take into account muscle mass, bone density and body fat, so unless you're average joe, its balls. Rugby players for example have bmi's of 30+ which is classed as obese, which is balls.

Checked mine today funnily enough.

BMI of 30 on the dot. Apparently I'm in the obese category. Biggest pile of bollocks I've even heard. To look at me you'd say I'm only just over weight.

You are fine. You will live as long in the 30-35 range as you will in the 20-25 range. (Although you might suffer more illness in later years).  The optimum for a long life is 26. That is for men...

For women the optimum is 23-24 but the risk increases after 27.

According to this article anyway

Lots of beer & pizza for me tonight then, I have 3 points to catch up on...
