My weight runs within a rather narrow 5 lb. weight band, depending on my eating/exercise habits for that particular month. Depending on the source, my weight’s normal (according to BMI), or a tad underweight (according to my doctor).

Now there’s this study that says being overweight (but not obese) may actually be associated with lowest levels of death. And being underweight is actually bad, too.

Bring on the bacon and sausage! [The Mascot says: But not eggs!] Then again, it may be more difficult to move to New Zealand if I gain too much weight. New Zealand bans immigrants who have too high of a BMI. Plus exercise would be more of a pain in the butt.
