Thank you Grunt :)

(I'll eat Yshanias cake anyway - it's delicious, and I'm a fast metaboliser so it's difficult for me to gain weight even if I want to.)

Hmm..but these numbers mean nothing, right? :) They are just another way to say we're all great :) </STRONG>
Body-Mass Index is a useful statistic for assessing populations and individuals. My wife often uses it in her work, along with many other physical measures of her subjects. There is a strong correlation between high BMI and certain health problems, but it is a statistical correlation, not a certainty.

@Weasel: My wife has been calculating my BMI for years, usually with an accompanying "tsk, tsk”. I don't need you to start harping on me too.... :mad: :p :D
That there; exactly the kinda diversion we coulda used.

Ok. *Throws CE a large steak and a bowl of porridge*

Does not go that well together but with a glass of orange juice you should absorb all the iron, those proteins will fuel the muscles, and the complex carbohydrates should give you slow release energy necessary for sustained exercise ;)

Ah, I see. Just doing a little communicating, hummm? :D

Well, in the spirit of Weasel's signature, I would like to sell off some of my BMI to those who need it more than I. For the low, low price of $19.99, you can go up a whole point in BMI! Act Now! Supplies are limited! :D :D

A recalculation showed that I'm not underweight after all, I just made an error in the transformation between kg and lbs. My correct BMI would be something like 19.5

But I still need to gain some of the muscle mass I've lost the last year - so I'll have the steak and porridge anyway - I'm always hungry :) Thanks Ysh :)

Normal. Well, that's a relief. :D

@Sleep: Suppressing information, are we ;) </STRONG>

Yep...I'll give everyone an example using the "metric BMI formula"...:

I'm 1.83 m tall...
My weight is 76 kgs...

1.Now take my length 1.83 and multiply it with itself i.e 1.83x1.83 = 3.3489

2.Now take my weight "76" and divide it by the number I aquired by multiplying my length with itself i.e 76/3.3489 = 22.694019

See...it's not that hard... ;)
