I prefer a body fat percentage, although I've never conducted one upon myself so I wouldn't know anyway.

I'm cool with that. I'm not fat, I'm not skeletal. I wouldn't mind loosing another 10 pounds, but I like food too much ^.^

BMI isnt the correct way to measure weight scales only in extremrely low weights should it be used as it doesnt take into acount muscle mass i the body, It makes no allowance for the bone, muscle and fat in the body. But bone is denser than muscle and twice as dense as fat, so a person with strong bones, good muscle tone and low fat will have a high BMI. athletes who work out a lot tend to find themselves classified as overweight or even obese.

While true, these tend not to apply to average teenagers. Your typical teenage girl is NOT going to be coming as "overweight" or "obese", as she is unable to gain such muscle mass without heavy training and/or steroids. Most guys this is irrelevant to as well, unless they're in competitive contact sports.

lads who do any type of sport sholdnt listern to BMI it was never ment to be used as it is now it is a rough test for lower weights not higher, if a rugby player done a BMI scale it would say there overweight or obese, if ur over 16 forget about it.
