I think I face a 80.31% higher risk of dying from anxiety because I know too much about all the other things that cause greater ricks of dying........

I really question this... I thought that it was long well known that being skinny helped with longevity. I suspect it depends on the REASONS for being underweight. Being a junkie that never eats versus someone who is naturally thin, stays active etc.

under 18.5% BMI is pretty darned "skinny". I think what you say Jane is true, and when you reach that weight, you don't have much to lose before you will die from it....if you get sick or such....

BMI is such a stupid measure. It is so vague. My measurements and the caliper pinch test show exactly where I have excess fat that needs to go, but even those measurements aren't perfect.

I go by the TAI. (turn around index) When I walk down the street and the women turn around to look after they walk by......then I'm at the correct index
