OVERweight?

Tweet

My sister arrived home from her check-up with our cardiologist 5 minutes before my son came home. I asked her if she told the doctor about all the aches and pains that she was feeling. Yes, she said. Even her emotions of wanting to cry and insomnia, she told the doctor. The "wanting to cry" I told her, is anxiety and might lead to depression. She also mentioned her weight loss. I told her maybe her reduced weight is good for her height but she said she is healthy "and not sick" if she is heavy. I told her to check her BMI (body mass index ). She is not interested so I searched on Google about the BMI. I found it and sent it to her on chat message. Then I told her directly that her weight of 58kgs at 5 feet height is still considered overweight. She however still wants to have her 60 kgs weight back so she will be "healthy" again. I kept quiet. I do not want to have another misunderstanding with her because what she believes in, she will fight for it. My weight of 56 kgs is normal for my height of 5 ft 3 inches. Are you over- or under - weight for your height? Is your BMI normal? Photo attached is taken from Google on Body Mass Index
