I agree. I think many people make the mistake of looking at exercise as simply a means to an end: losing weight. It has so many other benefits like helping to control blood pressure, improved mood, etc. To me these are more important than simply maintaining a pleasing number on a scale. I'm overweight according to the BMI and other measures, but I strength train and do cardio regularly. My blood pressure, cholesterol, triglycerides, testosterone, etc. are all perfect.
