On the topic of weight and health. You can’t possibly guess someone’s weight and health based on their clothing size. BMI charts are a general guideline, and does not take into consideration the natural build of a person or their lean muscle mass. I used to be so concerned about the “scale.” Now, it doesn’t mean a thing to me. If you’re eating a well balanced diet, exercising regularly, getting yearly physicals, etc. rip the tag out of that dress, hide your scale in the closet, and be happy! It’s easier to type this then to act on it, but over time as one’s self esteem becomes stronger, so will their self image, and everything else positive that comes along with it.
