I probably need to lighten up a little. I've read that a healthy BMI for seniors is higher than for younger people. Also, I keep getting shorter! I was once 5'7". Now at 76 I'm 5'5". I don't mind it, but it means that that 24.9 is more elusive.

I weigh 157 and I'd have to weigh 150 to get there. I look pretty good now so I'll just try to maintain.
