Can someone dig up the post of pictures of people at different weights?
I need it for a post on PC&E regarding BMI.
Re: Can someone dig up the post of pictures of people at different weights?
I'm not sure what post you are talking about BUT this is what I thought of when I read your post.

That IS crazy - I'm 5'7'' and 160lbs and although my BMI technically puts me in "overweight", I'm muscular and a very healthy weight.
For more photos, check out http://www.mybodygallery.com/ - you can search photos by height and weight.
I'm 5'2 and 150 and not obese. My BMI is at the higher end of overweight even. I've got a few lbs to lose but yea no one would say I'm obese or close to it.
This is a great link too! Thanks.
That is really helpful to see. Thanks!
I'm 5' 5", and the only time I was under 150 as an adult was due to complications from mono. On the medical charts and BMI scale, it is overweight. But my waist is under 30", I have a good amount of muscle, and I carry 34DDDs with me everywhere I go, so my dr is perfectly happy if I hang out in the 160s.
