Overweight people?

I’d actually be pretty surprised if sz 8-10 equated to an obese BMI. My BMI is 22 and I wear a 6. I’d have to gain 50lb or shrink 9in to have a BMI of 30, which is the obese cutoff. I really can’t imagine a ht/wt combo that leads to an obese BMI at size 8-10, although I don’t see why it wouldn’t be theoretically possible.

<p>Maybe someone was looking at a “vanity sized” 8-10 article of clothing?</p>
