Do you pay attention to your BMI?

My body mass index indicates I am extremely obese >35. I rejoined the gym right after Christmas and have been exercising regularly. Admittedly, I need to make some changes in my diet, but at least I'm feeling, moving, and sleeping better. I bought a body composition scale which arrived yesterday, and it provided some alarming numbers so now I'm terrified.

How much attention do you pay to your body composition figures?

Not extremely, I just stick to a regular gym habit and monitor my calories which I find most helpful.

@ravenwind43 That's great. I just can't do it that way. Counting calories makes me very anxious. Haha

@LadyGrace It's scary but makes you accountable lol. I read package labels much more now.

@ravenwind43 I'm certain it [b]does[/b] and that truly is great, but for my own personality, it becomes much too overwhelming. lol I've been there, done that too many times. So....I'm just doing what feels good to me. That way, I know I'll stick with it.
