Do you have a weight issue?

I recently conducted a BMI test on a website and found out I am at 39BMI, and I have come to terms with myself that its time for change.. I made a support group "Geeks Weight Watchers". If you are over weight or you are healthy, join and support anyone who needs it... Any help is great...

It does not account for Muscle Mass, but rather it generalizes a lot, especially when a 300 lb dude who's all muscle is well over the "OBESE" BMI ...

But go for it dude.; ▶ Reply to This

Theres no need for 300lbs of muscle anyways, it isnt natural or healthy.; ▶ Reply to This

Permalink Reply by Christian on September 11, 2008 at 12:33pm: Yea that's a good weight for 5'10. You've been fasting? If you're gaining weight because of this, it's because your body thinks you're starving so it's retaining everything that you do eat (or something like that).; ▶ Reply to This

Not to be presumptuous, but Omar could be fasting because this is the month of Ramadan. That would be my best guess as to why anyone is fasting right now.

Also, I peeked at Omar's profile. :-); ▶ Reply to This
