Do you believe BMI is useful

BMI is useful" />

We are all different frames and sizes. I find the BMI to be very harmful. If we feel good and function in our bodies, our organs working right and I ngeneral good health, why does BMI matter. I'm 5'5 larger framed, curvy -my daughter calls it "thick,thin" ...I have been told to lose 20 pounds that I "should" be 135. I tried diets and many restrictions but this is my healthy weight. My daughter ended up having an eating disorder because that almost killed her, she read somewhere that she "should" be 115. She ended up in the hospital and treatment and hoping her period will resume at her healthy weight of 140. My point is doctors are unaware often that BMI has never been accurate. Love your body and embrace who you are. You are beautiful.
