Ive gained 10 lbs over the last year, but my bmi is 21.6. But I dont like how I feel. I want to be = or <20.
This is a 2 part question..
What is the best range for us to be in the bmi?
Also this weight gain seems to be because of healthier eating habbits. hmmm, so what Im wondering is what can I eat that is jammed pack full of vitamins, antioxidents, calcium, protein etc. That isnt a huge quantity of food? I want to eat for nutrients, and avoid food I dont like or need.
Does eating flax seed everyday suppliment some other food group?
any suggestions?
Thanks a bunch!

more about nutrition. But I wondered about the BMI because Doctors etc always say the BMI is fine within 18.5-24.9, how can the BMI still be fine in a range of 40 lbs? you know? I thought I may get a better answer here. I may go to a nutritionist for the nutrition question.

BMI is not accurate at all for estimating many peoples appriopriate weight. It is not a valid estimate. Too many other factors involved.
