I just triggered a hamplanet who was bitching about BMI Hello, beautiful shitlords and shitladies. So, I'm a short person (5'0, 97 lbs). I was discussing meal plans with a fellow human at work (he's bulking, we go to the gym together sometimes when both our schedules match). I'd like to lose three vanity pounds before bulking. Enter this buttergolem, reeing about "diet culture, BMI is bullshit" the usual greasy whining. The former female happens to be around my size, so I had to jump on the occasion. It went like this Me: Yeah, you're right, BMI is bullshit for people like us Femayo: AH ! See, I can talk some sense into your head.  Me: There is actually a new BMI formula. It's adapted for people who are either quite tall or short (for those of you who weren't aware of this, you can find it here: http://www.healthyweightforum.org/eng/calculators/new-bmi/ According to this, my correct BMI would be 19.9 instead of 18.9, which leaves me room to lose those 3 pounds and then start to bulk)...How tall are you, around my height no ? It means you may have to add 1 point to your current BMI :)  Femayo: Reeeeee, this is fatphobic...I didn't bother to listen to the rest. Fellow human had the most beautiful smirk during all this. Feel free to use this with any shorty hamplanet who annoys you with the classic "BMI is bullshit" to further crush their delusions. :D Spread the hate, beautiful humans !
