My mum got some new scales yesterday and it said i was 8stone 11 even though our old scales said i was like 9 and a quarter, but the new ones are electric so i trust them more. Then I worked out my BMI to be 17.3 (underweight) lol even tho i eat like 24/7

BMI means **** all.... It doesn't take account of muscle or anything.
Mine is 16.7 and like you eat constantly.. because I have an extremely high metabolism. I'm still healthy though and do a lot of exercise which shows how rubbish it is.

17.6 but BMI isn't a very good indicator of health, it obviously can't take into account your natural build or actual body fat percentage

I don't know if it's actually there or not but I can't see where it says my BMI is. It says I'm a healthy weight just can't see the actual number >_>
26.0
BMI is pointless, body fat is what you should be concerned about i'm like 12%
20.something as wiifit says. that says im in a healthy weight too but doesn't tell me my BMI.
i would quite like to know my body fat / w.e as well

it says 6th percentile for me
i'm basically at the border between healthy and underweight for my age, weight, height etc
