Yep.. so very true. Both on what Anne wrote re the under-reporting of how being overweight doesn't really make you be totally unhealthy as long as your eating & moving habits are good.
Same for what Katy wrote about how old country folks are so much more used to moderately hard physical labour for hours on end as opposed to the young kids who can go faster/harder for a short while but then peter out quickly.
My dad was one of those country folks that could work for long hours and not get tired. My dear brother not so much .. but he's got similar health issues like mine.
Makes me rethink once again if I realllly want to go for 58kg as a goal weight , a BMI of 23 as opposed to what always was my goal wt (63kg or BMI of 25). I'm half way in between and really enjoy this particular weight. No wonder I've more or less been maintaining all year long

Sorry.. end of hijack
