The thick white girl

BMI as Health Gauge Flawed

Body mass index (BMI), the standard measure of obesity, has been deemed badly flawed, say US physicians following results of a data analysis recently published in The Lancet. Researchers from the Mayo Clinic College of Medicine in Minnesota have found that patients with higher BMI—considered overweight—had better survival rates than patients with low or normal BMI. Their study data came from 40 studies covering 250,000 people with heart disease. Lead researcher Francisco Lopez-Jiminez is quick to point out that their study results do not suggest that overweight people are healthier, but rather, the BMI as a measurement is no longer effective. "Our data suggest that alternative methods might be needed to better characterize individuals who truly have excess body fat, compared with those in whom BMI is raised because of preserved muscle mass." A separate study involving 52 countries compared 4 different body measures: BMI, waist-to-hip ratio, waist measure, and hip measure. Results showed waist-to-hip ratio to be the surest predictor of heart attack risk."

 

True,there is nothing wrong with big thighs.

 

Yep it depends on where the weight sits...and even then there's a lid for every pot still.
Different people have different preferences physically.

 

This is very interesting.I didn't read/hear this yet

 

I still haven't decided whether or not I liked that movie. :smt017

 

I'm convinced that Sam L. had to have lost a bet for doing that movie.:smt009

 

I call those "paycheck movies". It's one of those that every actor/actress does that has you wondering WTF? You just one an Oscar or were nominated or something like that. But every once in a while they either truly believe in a "stupid" concept or movie idea and go forward with it or they get offered silly money to act in a terrible movie and I can't blame them for padding their account. I'd blame myself if I fell for previews etc and watched said crappy movie.

 

True,I would too if the money is right. People like Jackson,Lawrence Olivier,Richard Burton and others made bad movies because of the money. Movie critics and Shakespeare does not pay some bills.

 

First of all babygirl your that perfect thickness . Also yhickness depends on the man. One man considers thickness if the female has thick thighs and a booty. Some consider thickness a female who's a little chubby. It really depends on the dude using the word. Is one person wrong and the other correct? I dont think so at all. I appreciate all women size, shape, or form. They are all beautiful in their own way. Be-you-tiful86 your just absolutely gorgeous.

 

Thank you for actually staying on topic in this thread.

 

I like this guy.

 

And I like you too. From what I can tell from your picture your perfect. I knew I wanted to travel to italy for a reason. But, I don't think us (as in men) should be judging women about their thickness.

 

Jesus, did it really take this long for someone to make some damn sense around here?!

If I could, I'd hug you.

 

I will take a big hug :smt007. It's not our place to judge women. I think you all are absolutely gorgoeus :smt007

 

i am lovin readin ur stuff......playa playa...u have women lined up for ya....ill jump in line somewhere lol

 

There's no line babygirl, just walk on in, lol. Im not a playa at all. Just grown, my dad thought me to always love, respect, honor, and appreciate women. I'm on a search for my soulmate. Well not really searching, cause time will bring her to me.

 

Oh boy ***blushing***

You did mention that once or twice.
