Body Mass Index Problems (BMI)
I’ve long held the opinion that Body Mass Index measurements are a bunch of arse, because they don’t count the extra mass that occurs with muscle bulk.
Anyway, some one jokingly said at work that he was going to go on a diet by chopping off a leg, and that he’d bring his BMI down dramatically.
And I thought….. “Well now, that’s true!”.
So how do they measure BMI for people who have lost a limb? What about people with withered limbs? What if you have six fingers on each hand? How about people in wheelchairs?
Makes you wonder really…..
