I never really liked our country's obsession with BMI for the obvious reasons: it doesn't take into account your bone structure, muscle vs fat ratio, or fitness level. I'm probably biased against the BMI system because I have thick bones — my wrist circumference is 6", which is in the thick range for my height. Heck, most women I know who are 6" taller than me don't even have 6" wrists! So no matter how fit I am, I will still look bigger than most people of my height due to my (literally) big bones. So yes, I am usually on the high range of the "normal" scale of the BMI chart. And I was fine with it...
