Recently I had to ask myself two pointed questions?

• I feel good, but could I feel even better and how could I measure this? 
• What is one of the leading indicators to determine how healthy I am?

To answer these questions, I think I could feel better and I could use an indicator weight status chart like BMI.

Body mass index, (the BMI formula is), take your

 Weight (lb) and divide it by [height] 2 (m) in (inches) = # x 703 = BMI

A persons weight = 143

A persons height = 5’ 8” or 68”

The formula is 143 divided by [68]2 =.0309 X 703 = 21.74

Understanding BMI

For adults 20 years old and older, the BMI results are interpreted using standard weight status categories that are the same for all ages and for both men and women. The standard weight status categories associated with BMI ranges for adults are shown here: Remember this is a good guideline some individuals may be slightly between one status and another.

BMI	Weight Status
Below 18.5	Underweight
18.5 – 24.9	Normal
25.0 – 29.9	Overweight
30.0 and Above	Obese

Just for fun this BMI calculator can tell you your STATUS…

Hi:

It's Ken Karow here, hope you're doing well.

If you have been thinking about this, you are not alone. Weight loss for me has never

been easy. I found this information about weight loss to be most helpful?

One of the best resources I’ve seen…

http://chetshouse.com/

I hope you will look at the above website carefully

as it's one of the best resources on weight loss.

There 2 ways to approach things…

1. Short-cut way: follow a proven method used by a majority

of people because it works as stated.

2. Try many different products and still get nowhere.

I prefer option #1 as it's the smarter way of solving

problems and making life easier!

Anyway have a look at this now…

Talk with you again.

Respectfully,

Two Different Morals...

OLD VERSION...

The ant works hard in the withering heat all summer long, building his house and laying up supplies for the winter. The grasshopper thinks the ant is a fool and laughs and dances and plays the summer away. Come winter, the ant is warm and well fed. The grasshopper has no food or shelter, so he dies out in the cold.

MORAL OF THE OLD STORY: Be responsible for yourself !

_______________________________

MODERN VERSION...

The ant works hard in the withering heat and the rain all summer long, building his house and laying up supplies for the winter. The grasshopper thinks the ant is a fool and laughs and dances and plays the summer away. Come winter, the shivering grasshopper calls a press conference and demands to know why the ant should be allowed to be warm and well fed while he is cold and starving. CBS, NBC, PBS, CNN, and ABC show up to provide pictures of the shivering grasshopper next to a video of the ant in his comfortable home with a table filled with food. America is stunned by the sharp contrast. How can this be, that in a country of such wealth, this poor grasshopper is allowed to suffer so? Kermit the Frog appears on evening news with the grasshopper and everybody cries when they sing, 'It's Not Easy Being Green...'ACORN stages a demonstration in front of the ant's house where the news stations film the group singing, “We shall overcome” Then Rev. Jeremiah Wright has the group kneel down to pray for the grasshopper's sake. President Obama condemns the ant and blames President Bush, President Reagan, Christopher Columbus, and the Pope for the grasshopper's plight. Nancy Pelosi & Harry Reid exclaim in an interview with Piers Morgan, (Larry King's CNN replacement) that the ant has gotten rich off the back of the grasshopper, and both call for an immediate tax hike on the ant to make him pay his fair share. Finally, the EEOC drafts the Economic Equity & Anti-Grasshopper Act retroactive to the beginning of the summer. The ant is fined for failing to hire a proportionate number of green bugs and, having nothing left to pay his retroactive taxes, his home is confiscated by the Government Green Czar and given to the grasshopper. The story ends as we see the grasshopper and his free-loading friends finishing up the last bits of the ant’s food while the government house he is in, which, as you recall, just happens to be the ant's old house, crumbles around them because the grasshopper doesn't maintain it. The ant has disappeared in the snow, never to be seen again. The grasshopper is found dead in a drug related incident, and the house, now abandoned, is taken over by a gang of spiders who terrorize the once prosperous and peaceful, neighborhood. The entire nation collapses taking the rest of the free world with it.

MORAL OF THE NEW STORY: Be careful how you vote in 2012. You are reading this because you are an ant! Pass this on to other ants. If a grasshopper reads this they wouldn’t understand it.
