According to BMI calculator stuff my weight is “healthy” anywhere between 48 and 68 kg. How on earth can 48 be healthy?!

I know, right? BMI is crappy though. apparently I can go down to 42 kilos and STILL BE HEALTHY?!?! It’s stupid. I’m 58 now and look normal. I’d be dead. It doesn’t take muscle into account either. It’s too simple and ignores genetics, frame size, muscle etc. It is too vague. By their calculations, many atheletes are classed as obese. Also, healthy is all relative. So really, this picture is silly. What is should say is Healthy for my body and my psychological wellbeing  but they probably couldn’t fit all of that on there. ahah. 

It seems one way or another I’m always wrong, so I’ll just stop reading people’s comments from now on. I’m starting to regret making this blog and I don’t like it. Sigh.
