TBH I'm trimmer now in my fifties than I was in my thirties.
I don't drink nearly as much as I used to, so that must have something to do with it.
My ruled of thumb is if, standing upright, you look down and can't see your tackle best lose some weight - unless you're hung like John Holmes

I'm at the ideal weight for 6 foot 3.
Unfortunately I'm 5 foot 10.

Just did mine online (as it happens I weighed myself this morning) and my BMI is 23.9. I got to the verge of overweight but having tight jeans annoyed me so I started to walk, swim and play football more and I've managed to shed some weight.

Im also 23.9 which is in the normal weight category. As I was 33.9 in august 2012, well into the obese range, I think that's pretty good. But to be fair BMI is just an indicator. Doesn't really take into account muscle. At my height if I was more muscley Id probably tip into the overweight catergory.

25.3 which is a huge improvement on my previous 33.6.
Although BMI is really a load of bollocks, it's just a ratio of your weight against your height squared. It takes no account of individual circumstances and assumes everyone is of the same body type.
Whilst at the lower and higher ends it's a good indicator of how under or over weight you are, it's pretty meaningless otherwise.
If you really want to gauge 'healthiness' then you need to be looking at other things like body fat percentage, resting heart rate, blood pressure etc.

Currently 24.1, having put a few pounds while on leave last week (too much beer!).
BMI is a bit of a blunt instrument, but useful as a ready reckoner for people starting a diet to work out a target weight.
