The same weight on a woman at 25 looks a whole lot different from the same woman at 60. I would look skeletal now if I weighed what I did at 25. Also, women's bodies naturally put on more weight around the middle during menopause. Some women escape this, but most women experience it.

I do like how the smart BMI says I'm mildly overweight rather than obese. I know I carry too much fat on me, but I have never felt "obese."
