It turns out that Body Mass Index is a great general indicator of physical health and likely lifespan. Do you know what your BMI is? If not, check out a BMI calculator. You’re looking to have a number below 25 and if you really want to live to be an old foggie you want a 22 or lower. I’m at 22.7 so I have a little way to go yet 😉
Actually I’ve been gaining weight lately, moving from 160 to 165 or so, which is sort of bumming me out. More exercise to come as a result. Thankfully the warm weather just rolled in with the dawn this morning, I’m hopping on my bike when I get home and going for a long ride.
had to know i would speak up on this one…
bmi of 20.3 and i am in the 16th percentile as far as weight.

doh! of course I wouldn’t figure on beating a skinny rail like you 😉
(remember though, while I was never as skinny as you, I did have that same skinny physique as you do. Beware your thirties, your gut will rue your 34th birthday or so 😉
