I almost did. Stopped myself when I was around 160 (which is still normal bmi for my height, but too much for me) and was already feeling the effects like thighs rubbing together, upper back pain.

Good on you for realizing what you were doing and deciding not to be a little bitch the rest of your life! :D

Great job... because once you go fat, you never comeback.

At 56 kg (163cm) i felt my thighs rubbing after a swim and wearing a wet bikini. I was so alarmed to not let this get worse and am down to 52 kg now, happy bmi 19.9. No rubbing thighs, no jello arms. I feel better than ever in my body, all my clothes just look good on me. Being chubb is not worth anything. Being anything more than that is really mental.

BMI is just too vague. I was a chubby fat bastard when I was 17, I think at my heaviest I was 11stone 7lbs at 5' 10. Problem is that I didn't do any sports or exercise, so all that weight was just fat, no muscle. Checked it online and that was a BMI of 23!!

Bodyfat measurement needs to become a regular thing. Gyms should all have accurate measurers, they should have them in schools, doctors should regularly check it since it only takes a few seconds. I had no idea back then.
