Yes, I'm on the opposite end of the spectrum. I'm 6'2 and have troubles keeping my weight up. I'm sure someone shorter with my body type would be considered underweight, but I am still in the normal range according to BMI.

If it makes you feel better, I'm in Europe and it's really not so great here. I would totally go somewhere else for holidays.

Ok, what is it with expensive Champagne? A bottle of Dom Perignon costs $ 3000? I once had a bottle of $100 Champagne and I found it nice, but nothing to write home about. I much prefer an expensive (for me that would be $20) bottle of wine. Unless that bottle of Dom Perignon is so much better than the Champagne I…

Thank you! BMI might not be perfect on an individual level, but it's doing great as a measure on a population level.

Well, an increase in height actually means an increase in volume, but the the height actually goes into the formula as a square (area), not a cube (volume). For this reason the BMI starts to be pretty inaccurate for very tall or very short people (children!).

There is also this:

I'm in Germany right now and you can buy those hard rolls pre-baked and then frozen for pretty cheap. I keep them in the freezer and put some in the over for 10 min when I need fresh ones. It's easy, smells like freshly baked bread and I don't need to go to the store so often anymore.

I am hungry now.

She was a jezzie!

The nude under bottoms confuse me. Why would she wear them?

But.. but.. Jamaica belongs to the continent of North America. Which means you have to specify, that you mean America, the country. Because the fastest American (the continent) sprinter is Bolt.
