Yeah, apparently hip-to-waist ratio is more accurate. Which also proves that you can be big and still healthy (i.e. not clinically obese) since it's just a ratio.
Just take an example, Zdeno Chara and Sidney Crosby both have a BMI of 28, so they're classified as "overweight / weight slightly above what's healthy". Yeah right, I'm sure they should exercise more

And seriously guys, the amount of stupidity displayed here in such a small number of posts is baffling. I hope for your sake that your wife and kids will never read what you wrote, cause they'd be ashamed.
