POW! 💥 nice 👍🏻  

Surprising, considering the food coma induced by your pancakes. Did you see the photo I posted, JP? 

I have just now! Scrummy 😋 Worth it though yeah ? Ace 😉 

They were mega scrummy. My son destroyed them 🤣 thank you JP 

Isn't a BMI of 19 way too low? If I calculate correctly, it would be like me weighing 146 lbs for 6'2". Even when I was 19 looking like a skeleton, my BMI was probably around 21.5.  

No, BMI 19 is still within normal limit sweetheart. Thank you for caring.… 😘 

Normal BMI is 18.5-24.5 or so. For some populations (some women, South Asians, some other Asians, different ethnicities), BMI underestimates body fatness and they start having metabolic problems at a BMI of 22.5 or higher. Some of these people will need to be between 18-20 to be optimal.  

👏👏👏👏👍 

Impressive. 

“Some other Asians” lol 🤣  

Chèvre, Shrewdness, Eral, thank you for your support. Disclosing my daily weight in public has been a huge motivation factor for weight loss. Thank you again for being there for me. 

lol Yfritz, I hope that didn't come across as offensive. I just couldn't recall the exact cut-offs for the different populations of Asian descent. What I know is that South Asians have to be really careful, and South-East Asians, Chinese are all at higher risk than Caucasians at lower BMI, though not as bad as South Asians. Good luck reaching your goal. 

No worries Chèvre 🤣 I don’t know how to define ourselves either. I just loved the way you put it!  

lol when I re-read I realized it might sound weird, lumping a lot of people together as "other Asians" 

I really didn’t mind it at all Chèvre! It was funny! I don’t take myself that seriously. I’m just grateful that our paths crossed in this journey.  

😘

I’m proper chuffed, Penny, especially after devouring those scrummy pancakes 🥞
