You know what I love about metric weight? When the doctor tells you that you weigh 124 kilos, you actually think it's good. After all, it starts with a '1', it must be okay! It's not till you get home and do the math that you realize that you are
273 lbs.
WHATTHEFUCK.
Based on a
height weight chart, I am supposed to be about 147 lbs. That means I am essentially carrying another person on my frame. You know when people joke that "it looks like you ate someone!"? I REALLY DID.
My BMI
is 42.9. HOLY CRAP. That other person that I ate? Essentially, a giant
Adipose
.
(Note: People might be upset at this point that I am angry at myself for being a weight that may be smaller than them. If I could remind you of my
former treatise about how I don't care about you, your weight, or your opinions, that would be just great.)
This is way beyond a little junk in the trunk, or "You Go Girl, Be Big and Beautiful!", and veering dangerously into "
I wash myself with a rag on a stick" territory. My bones were not made to carry this much weight.
GAH.
