You Talking Crazy, BMI

My stupid weight scale at home is officially broken. It won't give the same reading twice in a row. It's either trying to be flattering by saying I weigh a pound less each time I step on, but I don't think my body has that kind of metabolism in which I can lose weight in seconds. The sad thing is that it's electronic and has only lasted four years.

The reason I want a more accurate scale is because I'm starting to track my weight in the iFitness app on my iPhone. Even though weight is the last thing I need to look at for an overall assesment of my goals, it still would be nice to know what I weigh. When I enter my weight into this app I can also check my Body Mass Index. For me to "Normal Weight" according to BMI, I'm supposed to weigh 164 lbs. I don't think I've weighed that in 15 years. BMI is lame and so is my scale.
