In my post about my COPD review - I made a mistake,

I said my weight was 22kg and that I was given (wrongly) a BMI of 32+.

clematis5932 answered my post and compared a result she had - And reckoned my weight based on my numbers was just 4 stone,

I had put 22kg instead of 76 Kg

A mistake still hade been made though - My weight at 76kn would give me a BMI of 25 not 32 .

Apologies for my mistake, The results is the same.

If I had not been weighed this morning I would not have commented. I hate being weighed in Kilos, I always have to ask if they will convert to stones and pounds.

Yep, I am not a lover of metric weight, I was brought up with pounds and ounces.

See how easy a mistake can be made and that includes medical staff who need to be more careful. That is good of you to own up and tell us. Wish Medics would own up to being human too. Now its off your chest you can sleep easy. Have a lovely weekend.
