O-B-E-S-E. OBESE!

..this word hurt. But I have accepted the fact that this word describes me right now. Its not a mere assumption, but this is based on my BODY MASS INDEX computation that I have seen in the book that was included in the product I bought.

Body Mass Index (BMI) is computed by taking your weight in kilograms, and dividing by the square of your height in meters. I got 30.2, which means....

18.5 or less is considered to be underweight for most people

18.5 to
24.9 is considered to be normal for most people

25 to 29.9 is considered
to be overweight for most people*

30 or greater is considered to be
obese for most people

I was somehow shocked abou the result. I am expecting to be OVERWEIGHT but not OBESE. For me, OBESITY is a disease. So, I really need to loss weight to avoid two disease : OBESITY and HEART DISEASE.

Truth is before I learn that I fall under the OBESE category I already decided to start my WEIGHT LOSS regimen because as I have written here, I wanted to avoid anymore complication like HEART DISEASE and I wanted to live longer and be there as Anevay grows up.

I wanted to loss weight not because of vanity. I wanted to loss weight to improve my health. My last 2D echo, have a slight indication that their is something to suspect heart disease but Dr. Ino said that it might not also be an indicator. He told me to loss weight. And so because of this I am hoping that I will have the discipline to control what I am eating and not be lazy to exercise.

Hay!
