BMI Race!

Glurge is a great word. However, I did get a little inspired by jes' link.

So, thank you both.

BMI is less kind right now (I'm up slightly), but I did give blood today and had wacky, interesting #s.

Pressure: 111/62. Pulse: 57.

I remain clinically mellow.

@jespah,

I'm slooowly slipping too. The weather is too tempting for ice cream.

A pulse of 57 is very impressive. I got mine from around 80 to the upper 60s -- but the fifties are still very far away.

So it's official - you are a well-conditioned athlete!

She even got some blood sucked out today so she has a handicap and I stand a chance against her!

You're in New Jersey - you should be able to find some good sorbets or granitas. Learn to love the alternative (I'm working on it - oatmeal instead of a bagel).

@ehBeth,

Oh, I do love oatmeal. Sorbets have sugar, too. It's mostly the sugar that does me in.

@Thomas,

I donated a pint, so didn't I lose a pound? A pint's a pound, the world around.

I should donate every Monday morning before getting on a scale. Long as I don't faint, it should count, right? Smile

@Cycloptichorn,

Still gaining. 225 lb today, for a BMI that I don't want my pocket calculator to calculate. It's a tiny pocket calculator, and my BMI would be too heavy for it. And what's worse, I have no excuse, not even a lame one. I think I'll go to McDonalds now, have a big hamburger with fries and beer, and pity myself.
