I am wondering how people feel about the BMI or weight charts. I am within normal range, but I feel better when I am a little lower. I guess I am curious what others would say for someone who is 5'3, and small boned? Thanks! Re: BMI or weight

Date: December 11, 2012 06:25PM The waist to height ratio has made BMI obsolete. [nutritionfacts.org] Make sure your waist is less than 1/2 your height and you will be fine. Mine isn't... yet.
