Just reading an article on body mass index , bmi for ahealthy woman is between 18 and 25, 25 being the upper limit. Anything above that is considered overweight. In this day and age with the health services so poor here are people here concerned about the implications of obesity to ones health? Bmi can be calculated online using height and weight.

I know a few people in the health profession and they aren't too concerned if your BMI is just over the 25. It all depends on your lifestyle etc. Obviously if you're very active and have muscle, muscle weighs more than fat. They go more by looking at a person than using BMI

bmi is a load of bollox. it doesnt take into account build or muscle mass etc a guy could be 5'10 and 15st of muscle and be classed as obese

OK guys I see where ye are coming from but with diabetes etc on the rise is it not good to just get up get out and leave the fast food behind? The article also stated that a high bmi is associated with mental health issues which is so sad as I'm sure their are some great curvy people out there.

talk for yourself classy lol.... it's a bit generalised there... the no exercise statement.

I'd say it's more that the intake of calories is too high for the amount of exercise done.

I exercise, not in the gym but walk every day 1hr to/from work and I also swim. My downfall are the bloody calories because I love sweets too much.

unless they have a thyroid problem the main reason why ppl get type 2 diabetes is cos they are over weight!and they are over weight cos they eat to many calories than their body can burn burn due to no excercise,its nothing to do with bad health services!tht bmi is inaccurate so i wudnt go by tht at all!"
OK but I have a different experience my mom has diabetes and has no thyroid problem and has lived a very healthy life. She certainly has never been obese or overweight and could give a lot here a run for their money. I guess I'm just wondering are people here bothered about their health and weight as it can happen to the best of us. I do think there is a link between mental health issues and obesity and I think a lot of people who are obese use sex as a way of dealing with self esteem issuesr ie if a guy wants to have sex with me i must look OK.

Personally I don't hold with bmi numbers, for me percentage of bodyfat is more of an indicator of health problems.

why do you think obese use sex to make them feel better? have you been obese yourself? have you spoken to many obese people who have stated that?

I think the issue is just low self esteem, which not only obese people have. So if people with low self esteem use sex with strangers to make them feel better that's obviously not a good thing.

And yes, I'm concernced about my health, so is probably almost everyone.

The way I look at BMI is it is a tool used for the general public to categorise us in an index so studies can be done in a generalised manner.

There will always be exceptions ie those very fit and healthy who weigh a lot ie rugby players, weight lifters etc but for the most part it is to make us aware of our weight and lifestyles

Regarding diabetes, as we grow older our bodies can find it harder to regulate our sugar/insulin levels so that is why we see older people suffering from it as this is elderly onset.

Obese people and I say this in a generalised manner as I would never single out others but it is proven that being obese leads to an increased chan of getting it as your body has to fight to regulate sugar/insulin that much harder.

The two above examples are very very different in its causes but diabetes non the less

Also as our body's hormones like serotonin and dopamine are produced in the stomach it as been shown that there is a correlation linked between obesity and mental health but I would never over generalise things.

Also sex causes a great natural release of hormones

Thank god never been obese myself but believe it or not I have friends who are hardcore vegetarians who are. I do think that what you feed your body is what you feed your mentality and if your self esteem is low of course a woman would want to feel attractive and develop an unhealthy reliance on sex to feed that married or not.

95% in the stomach, that is why there is a link between IBS and mental health. You can check it out in any medical gastroentology book or neurology for that matter.

It is the misconception that all of our hormones are produced in the brain

I think Bmi is indicative only not a definitive diagnostic tool ? The tv ads a while back on obesity stated a certain inch waist was obese ... That was a size 12 ! Now that's mad !

It's all about how you feel about yourself and metabolism is certainly a huge factor. I think to say obese people here use sex to fill a hole in the soul so to speak is way off the mark and way to general. If there seems to be more ladies here that are curvy and BBW I think it's in direct proportion to the general population. We have unhealthy diets and attitudes towards food as a nation and are overweight as a nation . They say exercise and nourish your body because you love it , not hate it !

Yes but those who are obese or a high bmi have very little of those hormones thus the imbalance and the unhealthy mental outlook.

i was a bit overweight b4 and lost too much weight were i was underweight,i thought i wud be happy being thin and i wud be more diserable to men,yea the men were all around me but i wasnt happy,im now a healthy weight,and i know how hard it is to maintain it especially as u get older!having said women can be over weight and confident about their bodies,sexy isnt about being really thin!most men dont like really thin women anyway!being sexy is about being happy and confident in yur own skin!"
I'm a mom and have never been obsessed with weight even through pregnancies but I do think it is important to take care of the body as its not a dress rehearsal and I'm not a spring chicken either. It feels good to know your taking care of what gets you from a to b for the short time we all have. Curvy seems to be a word used regularly here and then when you have a look , its not exactly Ruben or rubenesque curves your looking at. I work in the artistic world and have an appreciation for the human form when you can follow the curve and line but sometimes the line just disappears.

I'm a running coach and train all types of shapes and sizes. BMI has nothing really to do with it. You can be overweight and still be very fit and healthy. I coach one guy who was 22 stone and is now down to 17 stone in 2 years. His doctor tells him he's still obese but I've told his doctor that after 8 marathons, 6 half marathons and too many 10k'S to count that he's talking out his hole. Once you are fit and can run 2 or 3 miles and your heart rate returns to normal in a couple of minutes after it you're doing ok in my book.

i agree tht being over weight is bad for yur health,especially diabetes,so many ppl seem to have it these days and it causes so many problems to yur vital organs,but its their choice,if they are in gud general health are happy and confident with the way they look and it doesnt bother them,gud for them,life is too short!

I breast fed both my kids instead of eating myself silly and I cook everything from scratch at home. If I'm having a bad day I don't go to KFC or Mc Donalds or the local chipper. I go out meet people and walk with them. I feel for those who are obese but their are better ways to deal with it. I also think the right doctor can help anyone who has weight issues but running a marathon with fat around your heart is asking for problems and weight should be dropped slowly and consistently with medical supervision the right type

I'm happy to take my own advice I started this thread to see what peoples opinion was , apologies if we have crossed wires or it has struck a nerve. I'm very confident in me and my weight and very happy in my skin too as I'm sure you are. As I said I work in the artistic community and have an eye for detail as did the grand masters Leonardo and Michelangelo but it is about being able to follow the curve and line and not following it into an abstract version of lines to beat the band

It was a thread to raise feelings and emotions not awareness !

When I read you profile it's clear how you view a less than perfect body . And that is your prerogative .. Your perfectly entitled to command perfection .. If such a thing actually exists ..

Do you command that in both your business and personal life ?

"BMI is to be used as a guide not a definitive tool that is what it has been designed for and it has been found to be obsolete as a definitive tool. Its just an awareness tool"

Thank you for that, the medical journal was just talking about it again and its links to mental health but they appeared to have found direct links between addictions and obesity

"It was a thread to raise feelings and emotions not awareness !

When I read you profile it's clear how you view a less than perfect body . And that is your prerogative .. Your perfectly entitled to command perfection .. If such a thing actually exists ..

Do you command that in both your business and personal life ? "

There is no perfect that is a falasy however I do know what I like and what I don't as do we all , as we are all entitled to do. I aim my personal best in all I do I don't expect others to do the same but I certainly stick to what I know is right for me. It works very well for me wanting to be the best that I can be but for others it mightened.

as I mentioned previously it does not take every variable into account so rugby players/ weight lifters and those of certain sports types can be very fit but given a false positive using the test. Which is why it has been proven to be obsolete in these cases but not in all cases. Its an individual by individual basis taking into account ones history.

As Jean Paul Satire said ' Hell is other people'

Here it seems to be a case of hell is if you have a personal opinion on anything. Last time I checked we lived in a democracy maybe here its a communist state.

Satire?... Satire?

The only satire is this ridiculous writing. His name was Sartre, S-A-R-T-R-E.

Here's another of his quotes...

'Only the guy who isn't rowing has time to rock the boat'.

You will find that this forum is very open to opinion and is very democratic . You have your preference and that's perfectly fine. No one said otherwise. If a difference of opinion renders the forum a haven for communism !! That's a kinda of ridiculous .. Don't you think !

Difference of opinion is great if done without personal

attacks which are unwarranted and just wrong. If you don't like it you just move on

Obiviously you don't have predictive text you must still be using a Nokia 1020 . Well I guess you'll have to start rowing so or we are going around in circles. As I understand it if one isn't rowing a boat will just go around and around that's if there are two rowing mind you.

As im in the medical profession i can say that all jokes aside its down to exercise and your fat intake keeping a eye on your cholesterol and i have seen many people with a perfect bmi and cholesterol of 9-11....

So exercise regularly,have regular bloods done,smear for the ladies,prostate for the men!! forget bmi...

The OP asked a reasonable question and the general answer appears to be that the BMI isn't held in high regard. Some swing sites ask you to tell your height and weight and age, you can make your own mind up based on people's pics as to whether you'd like them, Fab only has height but not weight.

It's a bit rich of posters on here to be calling Venusinfurs fake when so many profiles on here are fake or at least disingenuous. Lots of the "single" guys and girls on the forum are married and playing away, that's their business I'm not being judgemental but they're not single.

Does getting fingers and fucked up the ass with big strap ons count as having my prossie checked ?

if so.. im well checked this last few weeks

on a serious note.. whoever the fk the OP may be.. yeah suppose a bad BMI is to be worried about.. but, hey, worry in itself isn't good for us either...

same way they told us fat was a killer.. now, its sugars turn, next week it will be something else..

love your neighbour as yourself and youll be fine

Totally agree with you every week it seems there is something else we need to keep check of. Having regular health checks is probably the best way forward.

A lot of the protein powders are very high in sugar too

Its hard to get a good natural based one without sugar or additives. Also all these so called low fat meals are loaded in sugars. its hard to eat wisely as you have to really read the labeling to get any idea of what your eating.

I personally don't hold a gym membership or use a gym, I just walk and do a few weights at home, I think I'm lucky though as the kids keep me on my feet most of the time. BMI or not I do think its a personal choice to try and eat healthy but again I've seen people like my mom who ate healthy and walked regularly and had six kids fall victim to I'll health. Diabetes and a heart attack , never drank or smoked either but yet had to have stints put in due to blockage around the heart. One last thing that I do know is that milk in your diet over 40 is not good and can lead to a lot of health problems. I was in a& e recently and it would frighten you, god help those who end up in there with serious illness seriously it would make you think about taking care of yourself.
