Dude I was 5'6 and 160lbs and the thing claims im overweight. Yet the average American is like 30lbs+ more then me.

the average american is fat... just saying.

when i was 17 was 5.1' 110lbs.

=(.

i gained a bit, but require eating mcdonalds everyday.

The US, UK, and Mexico are the fattest countries.  Though this is probably accurate, the US and UK report accurate data whereas most countries only provide estimates due to poor health systems.

OT: When I first "played" Wii Fit it claimed I was overweight and made my Avatar fat.  It was actually rather motivating.  Fortunately, I am much lighter now but I am still saddled with a Fatatar.  BMI does not take into account body type, nor overall muscle mass.  BMI is also used by world health organizations to judge the fattest countries.  Unless it can be adjusted for muscle mass, BMI is not overly accurate.



Thanks for the input, Jeff.
