Hi IGona,

I read that article with interest, and had to laugh at the "average woman is overweight" comment.

I am three pounds away from being of a normal weight, according to the BMI site I saw recently; until I lose them, I am overweight. Not two--still fat. Not one--still fat. Three is my ticket into the Holy Land. It helpfully added that I am in the 27th percentile for my height and age and weight. And when I am normal, I will be in the 24th percentile. So normal is what a quarter of that slice of the demographics weighs. Either their math or their semantics needs drastic fixing.
