Is complete and utter bullshit. I hate when people go by that. http://www.nhlbisupport.com/bmi/
It does not take into account muscle mass, bone density, and overall body type. I wish more people would get measurements or get the body percentage test, or pinch test done to see how in shape they really are.

So what do you guys think is the best way to think if you are fat?

    If you look strait down and have to lean forward to see your toes your fat. And to be honest that thing is pretty accurate for me. It says I am average and I am very much so. But it depends on where your at on that thing.

    These stats don't take into account muscle, though, so I don't really trust them all that much. I've read how they're actually not that useful, but who knows.

    I don't bother with that stuff. I don't know how 'fit' I am, but I feel great and look decent, and that's all that matters to me.

    Charts and whatnot don't really help much. Seeing a doctor or nutritionist is probably the best idea.

    That doesn't work so well. I mean, I can see my feet standing straight up and not leaning over, but I'm fat. So...

    It's like the fat guys who can't see their own dicks. That would be a sad day indeed.

    Same basic principle. But damn how bad would that be. Not just the fact that you cant see your own dick but just imagine how lame sex would be. "I cant reach your vagina the fat is in the way. Damn we will have to try something different."

    haha love the BMI test, I like to look at it to help me with my body building goals, I've never been overweight, and so since I'm considered "overweight" that means I'm on the right track as far as muscle mass, hopefully I'll hit "obese" soon!
