I've completely given up on my body. I'm only 21 and I feel as if I'm experiencing a mid-life crisis. I'll probably be dead before I'm 40 anyway. I'm about 28 on this scale. I'm about 5-11, somewhere around 215. I don't give a sh*t. I hate life and sometimes a fresh burger makes things seem less sh*tty. I'm not trying to impress anyone anymore.

17.9.  Holy cow, I'm way underweight.  But then, I'm diabetic, so I can't just gorge myself.

23 last time I checked but I feel really out of shape because I've had to stop running. :\

Good news is, I get back into shape pretty quickly.

Somewhere on the edge of normal weight and overweight,  but my lifestyle is unhealthy as hell.

25.18, so just into the 'overweight' category of the BMI scale. However, I'm quite tall (188cm) and my weight is 89 kgs at the moment, so I'll dare anyone to actually call me fat. I have dropped 5-6 kgs over the last few months with no conscious effort behind it, I just reduced my intake of bread. Not eating half a loaf for lunch every day makes a difference. My stomach is less bloated as well as a result, so that's a double positive.
 
Now, if only I could find the time to ride my bike more often...

25.4, so slightly overweight
I used to be skinny up until the age of about 25
Those days are gone: I need to watch what I'm eating & drinking

When I was about 20, my BMI was 19-20
When I was about 30, my BMI was 23
Now I'm 52, my BMI is about 26.5 (I peaked at 28.4 last autumn) and I have become a diabetic some years ago.

The BMI is an incredibly flawed metric that has almost nothing to do with health. With that said, mine is 22.0.

25 dead on, last time I've checked. I've put on a lot of muscle and stayed close to the same weight in the past year or so, so I bet it's a tad lower.

Also, this. Some of the methods for measuring BMI are laughable. I have a bunch of loose skin since I was over weight, so the whole relax your abs and measure around the waist bit is malarky for me.

The main problem with BMI is that this system just says "Get lost, you're complicating my mathematics" to the bones and the muscles.

Indeed, I know for a fact I'm healthier than people I know with lower ones.
I just got a bit of a belly from college laziness.
I know people that are freaks and never do much and eat like pigs yet are always thin.

...Which I refuse to believe is very healthy, just a hunchLOL
