Targets
January 14, 2008
I weigh 258lbs. I am about 6ft tall. That puts my BMI at a round (!) 35. It is usually labeled “obese” on graphs and is almost certainly printed in red for INSTANT DEATH.
I don’t know what I should actually weigh. I don’t really care what I weigh, to be honest, I just want to be slim and healthy. I feel I need a weight to aim for though. Something to work with.
For my height, the perfect BMI means I should weigh 165lbs. That is a whopping 93lbs less than I weigh now. I am much more overweight than I thought. I am not a small chap but I don’t look as heavy as I weigh. Maybe I am really tiny under all this excess weight :)
6 stone 9 pounds to loose, a lot. 11 stone 11 pounds is my target weight then I guess. It doesn’t seem enough.
