It says you you can do it in inches and centimeters, did you try to do your height in centimeters and your waistline in inches.

I am not obese, I am stocky. I have heavy bones.

Seriously.

Well marbled? I prefer using USDA designations.

I AM in shape. Round is a shape! Either system, I still barely make it into the "normal" category. Not that too many people would call me normal.......

Me, too.

I suppose it wouldn't be all that hard for me to get to a 38" (37.5" waist) but I've got to get back to a 40 first. Under that ain't happening.

Do I get to count how tall I USED to be before I started shrinking? I still make it under the wire, add my missing inch and a half and I've got very comfortable margin.
Note that this waist measurement they're talking about is NOT your pant waist size. It's measured below the rib cage and above the navel. Nobody wears their pants there except for my high school english teacher Mr. Zeno, whose beltline hit right below his armpits.
