I've posted (many, many, times) that the BMI is a pseudo-scientific scam, and is actively harming efforts to improve public health (by focusing on a mathematical formula which has no provable connection to actual human healthy weight). Kate Harding has posted a series of photos, showing what "normal", "overweight", "obese" people actually look like.
H/T to Marna Nightingale for the link.
