bah, BMI is a bunch of bs anyway. its only looking at body mass, not body fat. therefore a person who works out in a gym, pumping iron, fit as a fiddle, will return a high BMI simply because they have alot of muscle mass, but a DAME is going to say that their overweight or obese. what they really should be doing are body fat tests, alot more accurate in checking for risk factors accociatated with weight issues
