Say what??

So I was looking at myself the other day glad that I am loosing some of that pregnancy/junk food weight. My little ticker above says my BMI is 25.9 so I wanted to know what it meant. Apparently I am overweight! WHAT?? (you can also calculate your BMI here)

Determine your waist circumference by placing a measuring tape snugly around your waist. It is a good indicator of your abdominal fat which is another predictor of your risk for developing risk factors for heart disease and other diseases. This risk increases with a waist measurement of over 40 inches in men and over 35 inches in women
dang. I don't have a measuring tape and I haven't purchased any new jeans so I wouldn't know. dang. Kinda deflated my weight loss bubble.

My BMI is 19.6,I believe that is an accurate assumption that I'm totally so NORMAL,my future husband will be mighty pleased to hear the news.Now if he only would just hurry up and find me.No wonder God told me he was laid back,he must be laid waaaaaay back, as long as it has taken him to find me,lol.I probably have to PUSH him around to get things going, and I suspect he is a left brainer, being that easy going.
