Yeah, I weigh about the same as I did two years and a half ago, but I looked and felt much fatter back then. (OTOH none of the other people I mentioned in the grandparent exercise regularly, and anyway I only used the BMI because it was the quickest quantitative measure I could think of.)
Oh, I should clarify that my arguments were not meant to chastise you for using BMI. I don’t have any problem with it in the way you use it; it looks like it falls under argument two but it’s clear that you’re using it as a rough signal of degrees of morbid obesity.
