Measuring

My doctor considers BMI to be very important. He insists on nude weigh ins. He takes his time and measures my height and weight with extreme accuracy. After that, he takes a tape measure to my body. If any of the numbers are bigger than the last appointment, I get lectured.

Sure, and the nurse with the long red nails helps hold your penis out of the way.

That's ridicuous.

Come on guys, be realistic when you are posting in the forum.

Save your fantasy for the stories sections.

The only time you are going to be very accurately measured with a tape measure or other devices on individual body parts is before various orthopedic or plastic/reconstructive surgeries.

A little up and down on height will depend on how you stand and is of no importance. For a guy like you in his 30s, height loss due to osteoporosis or spinal column compression or herniated disks is not likely to be a concern. Some weight variations is of no importance either unless you are fat and they want you to lose weight.

My nude weight (at home) can vary by 3-5 pounds a day depending on time of day, hydration, bowel habits and fluid retention. Kjb's stories are completely ridiculous. Some people need to be able to differentiate between fantasy threads and reality threads.

Thanks for stepping up to the plate on this one as you know how this foolishness is an absurd waste of time and insulting the intellect of others. Sometimes I have been known to flip the switch and go into ridiculous mode. I assure you it is all in good fun. I am relatively clear it is just good natured and often self depreciating humor. That's all it is.

BMI can be an important factor during a health assessment but as you have pointed out even the best and fittest athlete can have a high BMI due to muscle mass. I tend to fall in the average range for years. Plenty of regular exercise has kept my BMI in check. I have the injuries to prove it.
