On the other hand, exercise is more important than "losing weight" as it pertains to physical health. You can carry a gut and be more healthy than a very light person. It's a shame that the medical community still relies on weight/height (BMI) as a measure of fitness. It's bunk. I could show you a picture of two people who are each 6' tall, 250 lbs, where one would be very healthy and the other would be very unhealthy. Both would be considered "obese" by medical standards, even if one was carrying 4% body fat.
