I have invented a floating underwater weighing system (see: hydrodensity.com) which allows anyone with a hot tub or swimming pool to measure his/her body density to get an accurate body fat percent. I am crusading against the use of body mass index (BMI) as a measure of body fatness. I would like to get photos of persons of varying body fatness/leanness along with height and weight data. Then I propose to calculate the BMI for these individuals and post selected photos on my website. It is my intention to pair the fattest and the leanest persons who have the same BMI in order to illustrate why it is not an appropriate measure of body fatness. If you are willing to help me with this project, please email a photo (in a swimsuit would be best) along with your height and weight and permission to use it. Thanks.
