It's the same as the BMI Index.
According to that, someone like Johnny Wilkinson would be an obese net fatty.
(Bear Pookie The Frankly Challenged. Halloween is coming to town., Thu 21 Jun 2012, 11:28, Reply)

BMI is a shower of arse if you take part in almost any contact sport or are vaguely welll built.
My BMI is 26.6. My body fat percenate varies between 12 and 14%. I think I know which one I'd pay attention to.
( the mighty badger Aphrodite, on a bar stool, by your side, Thu 21 Jun 2012, 11:36, Reply)

BMI is a load of rubbish.

(The Luggage is haunted..., Thu 21 Jun 2012, 11:36, Reply)

The best I've seen is just before my brother quit high-level rugby
BMI of 30. Body fat percentage - 5%. Being simultaenously obese and also having a fat level so low that physical health could be adversely affected is rather an achievement, I thought.
( the mighty badger Aphrodite, on a bar stool, by your side, Thu 21 Jun 2012, 11:41, Reply)

No, really.
BMI really only works if we are in fact two-dimensional. Comparing height to weight ratios is completely idiotic. Proportion of muscle to fat is a far more effective comparison.
(The Luggage is haunted..., Thu 21 Jun 2012, 11:47, Reply)

it gives people a good idea but they shouldn't stick to it religiously
if it's early-mid 20's, don't worry, late 20's, get on a diet, 30+ you're a fat fucker

but other than that, don't over-analyse it
( rachelswipe with a fork, Thu 21 Jun 2012, 11:48, Reply)

Simply put, if you have a pie addiction, you need to go on a diet.
No need for over complicating things as you say though. Trouble is most people who look normal on the outside are considered overweight by strict BMI comparison.

which said that its not your fault yourt fat, so its ok
(Quintno EXPERIMENT RUINED CANCELLED, LEFT 4EVER, Thu 21 Jun 2012, 11:51, Reply)

it was this one
www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01k0fs0

it was interesting, basically Nixon's agricultural minister industrialised American farming, this lead to excess corn, that corn instead of going to waste was refined to make corn syrup. Corn syrup was then added to other foods to make them sweeter, corn syrup contains fructose, fructose is a type of energy which is not only very fattening but actually seems to suppress your body's 'I'm full' reflex.

the WHO organisation was going to set fructose & sugar limits in food, but the food industry said 'FUCK YOU', so they've settled on trying to promote low fat foods instead.

So your fat because: America

(Quintno EXPERIMENT RUINED CANCELLED, LEFT 4EVER, Thu 21 Jun 2012, 13:09, Reply)

no it doesn't
because it doesn't make any allowance for build and it doesn't consider muscle levels.

Like Luggage says, it's only useful if you are two-dimensional.

However, the basic outline in this case is still wrong. It was invented by an obscure Belgian mathematician who knew nothing about human biology. Hence why I think it's a crock.

much better than i thought
lots of countries are fatter than me. BUT having been trying and failing to find a dress that fits around the top and the bottom, i am coming to the depressing conclusion that it's all tits and they have got to go. if i were flat-chested, i'd be way up that scale.

do they really cut your nipples off, though? urrrrgh.

Of course they do, how on earth else would they do it? Unless you want your nips on the underneath?
Also, there a plenty of places that'll give you dresses that fit round the top and bottom, woman. You're just trying to buy dresses from designers that only cater for the small boy look.

(The Luggage is haunted..., Thu 21 Jun 2012, 11:59, Reply)

You really want to know?
you'll end up with too much skin, so some will have to be removed. I'm assuming you don't want massive scars on the top of your tits, so they'll only cut skin away at the bottom so the scar is hidden underneath. If you take the skin at the bottom away, your nips will move downwards, so unless you want nips actaully underneath they will have to be moved.
