Forget weight.

I am clinically obese at nearly 16 stone!!!!

Mmmmmm, sub-5 minute miles, heart like an ox and a BMI of around 25.

Go for BMI reading only and aim for around the 30 mark. Less the fitter, more the chubbier, but not a massive issue until you reach about 35 percent body fat. Over 40, consider dieting for health reason.
