This freeware program calculates your body mass index in an amusing way. You don't even have to install BMI NewFatChart--just run it. Enter your height in inches and weight in pounds, then press the Calculate button. The program will tell you your body mass index, point to your place on the spectrum from Too Thin to Obese, and name a celebrity or two who shares your designation. If you're too thin, it tells you to eat a cheeseburger. If you're way to the right of the obesity scale, it just says, "Oh, dear God." The program is designed to make you feel better about your BMI, no matter what it is. The calculations are correct, too, regardless of all the jokey features, so if you're interested in your BMI, you might try BMI NewFatChart.Publisher's description
From The Center for Consumer Freedom :This entertaining freeware utility calculates a person's body mass index. By entering your height and weight, you can learn your BMI and whether the government classifies you as normal, overweight, or obese. It also tells you what celebrities are in the same category. The utility also contains funny Easter eggs--see if you can find them.

Version: BMI NewFatChart 1.2
"Amusing, yet you can play without downloading"
Pros: Amusing, but no need to download as it can be played straight from the ConsumerFreedom.com site. Scroll down their home page, the link to Games is the "Are You Fat" graphic with Uncle Sam pointing his finger at you.
Cons: The BMI calculation is flawed in that it does not take into account the ratio of muscle to bodyfat. This is apparent, though not explained, when you input your height/weight and are told which celebrities are also classified as obese while they clearly are not; i.e. Arnold Schwarzenegger and other athletes for example.
Until the BMI calculator includes a calculation for the amount of routine exercise you get, to help estimate potential bodyfat/muscle ratio, this will continue to be only something for amusement. At least they are trying. ;-)
