I've never heard of the waist-to-hip-ratio method as a weight guideline... Today, the medical industry has set its weight guidelines according to the waist-to-hip-ratio method, which is a much more accurate way of arriving at an ideal goal weight. Follow these steps to find yours:
•Get a tape measure and measure your waist right at the belly-button line. •Standing with feet hip-width apart, measure your hips at their widest point. •Now simply divide your waist measurement by your hip measurement. This is your waist-to-hip ratio.
The ideal waist-to-hip ratios are 0.80 for women and 0.95 for men.Read the whole article at: http://www.jillianmichaels.com/fitness-and-diet-tips/what-is-your-body-telling-you?xid=nl_LosingItWithJillianMichaels_20120302Thanks Jillian Michaels! Now all I have to do is find one of the 3 tape measures hidden throughout my house. Yeah, maybe another time. One box of Girl Scout Cookies down and two to go! I totally shouldn't have eaten so many Lemonades today, but they were so good and I just couldn't help myself! And now that they are gone they can't tempt me anymore, so it's good that I ate them... Yes... Knee didn't hurt during my workout today, woot!

It's all about health rather than weight loss. If you carry your weight around the tummy, then it's going to be visceral fat and your risk of insulin resistance goes up. It just recognises that some people can be a "healthy" weight but have a high risk of health problems.

There are just too many ways to gauge how "healthy" a person is. Thanks for the insight Pumpkinbelly!
