You'd be surprised at what the government considers fat....it's also interesting to see how tall/heavy some of the celebrities are. Tom Cruise (who according to the gov't is really obese??) is shorter then I am, but has about 25 pounds on me....and I'm no rail.

Who came up those weights for the famous people?

They are totally off. These ones are really wrong I think

OVERWEIGHT:

OVERWEIGHT:
David Duchovny: 6'0": 212 lbs: 29
Cheryl Ford: 6'3": 215 lbs:27
Brad Pitt: 6'0": 203 lbs: 28
Keanu Reeves: 6'1": 223 lbs: 29
Andy Roddick: 6'2": 197 lbs: 25

Obese: Tom Cruise: 5'7": 201 lbs: 31

whoever programmed that calculator needs to put the bong down and go over his code.

i dont think the government cares whether people are fat or not, because if it did, the food served at public schools would be better -instead of serving cookies and burgers...

it is the consequences of obesity: coronary disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, stroke, and the USA is the leading nation for those diseases at alarming rates...there you go:

This calculator is perhaps taking into consideration that the average human being across the globe are smaller as compared to those of us who live here in the US.
