Also, if anyone wants to do it themselves, here is the data I have for calculating it:

[ (Your weight in pounds) x (705) ] / (Your height in inches)*2

So if you are 150# and 6'0"...

(150 x 705) / (72)*2 = 20.4

Remember, do not take it too literally.

Nick check your #'s again. I come up with:

150*750 = 105750 (and that's a weird coincidence huh?)

divide that by 72*2 (=144) and I get 734.375 - not 20.4!

Scared the heck out of me when my BMI came out to be 1255!
