The Fatness Factor

  According to the records now on file at the health provider's office, I am not merely overweight but obese. BMI, Body Mass Index, finding is calculated on the ratio between height and weight. And it doesn't help that my height is entered as 54 inches when my actual height is 64 inches.  Height measured at 5 ft. 4 in. cannot be translated as 54 in. Do the math!  Medical records can be so wrong.  So often. In so many ways.
