Here is the CDC's Body Mass Index calculator:

Of course, any trend information is meaningless if you change the yardstick every couple of years...

Wow! at 6"1", I would have to weigh less than 185 pounds to be normal, the upper edge of normal. When I weighed that much in college my mother thought I was a coke addict or had a tapeworm!

Not that I couldn't stand to lose a few pounds

So true!!!! However I am so sick of hearing this. I don't believe it for a minute and I believe this is just another money making sceme.
