i HATE calculating BMI..!

i HATE calculating BMI..!

Ive always been categorised as 'overweight' or sometimes 'obese' (especially now when i'm pregnant). I don't think I look obese, but I AM overweight..!? Can you imagine a person called obese? They usually have a huge 'pile' of fat on their stomach, buttocks, arms and thighs. But as for me? I do have a motorcycle sized of 'spare tyre' on my stomach, not even bigger than that! And fats under my arms are not even as big as my calves! Then how do you categorize me as obese??? You can't even count my fat using BMI! Arghh! Stu*^& BMI..!

They (nurses) even made sure to put this GREEN sticker on my pregnancy card as reminder of my weight..!

But it puzzled people when I mention my real weight because it doesn't seem to fit my appearance that well.. I always get that shocked look among nurses especially if they are using that 'me-vs-stone' weight-scales.. They usually starts the estimation way 20kg lighter than my real weight!!! So how do you explain me being considered as obese?! The so called BMI is NOT that RELIABLE at all! Whoever introduced that should do a new research!

I always know something about my built. I am always quite muscular for a woman.. I used to carry all 2-3 of my bags filled with clothes and books weighing 10-15kg each walking almost 50-100m on my own when I was in university.. And I dont mind moving my furniture around the house on my own even if I need to lean against them to push them around..(Though now I am NOT ALLOWED to even move a coffee table on my own)

So everytime I count my BMI, it gives me some real BIGGGG HEADACHE! IT IS NOT THAT ACCURATE AT ALL! argghh!

once again, i HATE calculating BMI..!

PNB Darby Park at the heart of Kuala Lumpur

As prestigous as it sounds, this is an absolute exclusive place for executives. I was honored for the chance given by my G-boss to have a 5 day stay, dont even have to pay a single cent for anything. From Drop Box Situated 10 minutes walking distance from the well known twin tower KLCC, 2 minutes away from the Putra Station & from Nikko Hotel, and 5 minutes walk to Masjid as-Syakirin KLCC. a suite cost RM1300++ per night. with 3 bedrooms, 2 balcony, living room, 3 toilets, kitchen (wet & dry), tv in all rooms, and tv set + videoplayer (maybe cd + karaoke enabled). as for food, sarapan pagi + makan malam di ground floor's restaurant, The PNB Darby Cafe. In its website it says : "myriad of local and international menu" is very true. Its a small cafe but yet offers so many types of food and drinks. The city view from here, not so lovely. Well, busy road with cars .. what do u expect? but for lunch, u have to follow the dress code. means.. no jeans.. no t-shirt.. and ...
