back on the WW wagon

i have an entire closet full of clothes that don't fit me and i am tired of looking at them. so i'm back at the Weight Watchers meetings. we get a discount through work, so that's cool. and the meeting are right by the cafeteria on mondays. you can't get any easier than that. and i'm the thinnest person there. oh, wait. no, i'm not. there was a chick who evidently has lost a lot of weight. but here's the other funny thing: i signed up for a health study today through my community garden. this morning at 7am, i got weighed and measured. i got a blood glucose and cholesterol test. i had my blood pressure taken 3 times. here's the kick in the teeth: i am healthy. as a fucking horse. everything is painfully normal, except my stupid weight. according the BMI (which is total bullshit) i am overweight. but with a blood pressure of 110/70 and a cholesterol of 170, i am probably healthier than a lot of other skinny assholes out there. so suck it, BMI. you'll get lower and i'll be in the "normal" range and you'll still be an inaccurate way to measure how "healthy" people are.
