Sounds like me - except about 25 lbs overweight (more on this in a sec) and I don't smoke.
Now on to my thoughts - I think the weight guidlines are a little messed up. I'd look like a string bean if I followed them - I am 5' 9", so they say I should be 150 lbs? Come on! What are they thinking??? I am fine at 175 lbs. I feel good. I feel like my weight is in appropriate proportion to my height, and I discount their idea of what is considered overweight. I have no desire to be 150 lbs.
Am I the only on that feels this way?

PS. I have been known to have a good cigar coupled with a good bottle of cab - so the smoking thing is not entirely true. |
No this whole BMI thing is messed up. I don't think it takes into account of build structure either. You can be too thin as well, I am a firm believer of that.
Nothing like a good cigar either.
