How Tracking Your BMI Can Improve Your Health and Fix Hidden Issues. Obesity comes with a hefty cost—physically, emotionally, and financially. But it's a choice. One you can change.
I just did a quick search, found a BMI calculator, and got a number. It was super easy.
I think the thing for everyone to remember is not to compare yourself with everyone else. Say your number is 29. The question then could be, how would I feel if I got my BMI to 25? Would I have more energy and less aches and pains?
Who cares about that freak of nature that has a BMI of 16. This is about you. Everyone is unique, with different body shapes and bone densities. One person’s BMI 16 is another persons BMI 20.
Was just about to ask how we find our BMI rating. Then saw Tim’s comment. It would be interesting to see. What is interesting to me is that you felt better after switching to organic produce too. What we eat has a huge impact on our health. I know that sounds stupid simple but it really does!
Our food contains so many toxins, and we're hardly aware of them. Yes, organic makes a difference, even more so if grown in your garden. The fact that you know exactly how it was produced seems to have a positive effect alone.
It's not a competition but a starting point. In Nature the concept of being obese is completely non-existent. That alone should tell us all we need to know...

Sorry, for not including a link to a BMI tracker. Here's what I have been using for some years already: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=app.weightfit.android&hl=en-US

Great article - thank you!
