You're not implying this is a causal link are you?

The odd thing with BMI is that it assumes that taller people should be more gracile.

get the patch
I used the patch and still smoked, dropped to 5 a day and just tried to wean myself. It was tough, but the patch really helps to kick the habit.
I would wear it to bed, got strange dreams, but didn't wake up craving a cig. I would take it off in the shower and see how long I could go with out putting another one on. Then I would put it on and have a cig... would generally smoke in the evening just because I was bored.
I still miss it.Comment

I tried it once.
Felt like there was a party in my lungs and everyone was on fire.
Needless to say I haven't gone there again since.

I'm glad that you managed to quit it Japher.
I hope I will too before long, but it's just not on the table for me right now, so to speak.Comment

I got a belly:
6 feet, 200 lbs.“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

5'7", 175lbs. Out of shape, could stand to lose 20 lbs, honestly. I'm built slim - I'm the fat skinny guy who hides it pretty well. I get minimal excercise. The plan is to join the local YMCA and go swimming. My wife and I have been meaning to do this for a while now... but we still haven't gotten around to it.
Luckily, owning a hyper lab means we have to occasionally move around.

I'm a bit out of shape - trying to rectify that right now and get back into my old workout routine - but I wouldn't say I'm fat at 5'10" 170lbs. My metabolism really caught up with me at about at about 25-26. Before that, I could eat anything and barely put on a pound.

Only 17. I'm generally about 60kg and I'm over 185cm (almost stopped growing). Anything below 18.5 BMI is underweight and I've never been above that. On a side note I also have no idea how to convert from the logical metric measurements to those silly imperial ones.

I suppose it's worth noting that the recommended BMI ranges are for fully grown people. Teens are generally skinnier, even ones that have attained adult height.Why can't you be a non-conformist just like everybody else?
