My weight index – with and without backpacks.

On our way to the beach two weeks ago we had to change buses in Tepic. I found a 2 peso scale that measures weight and height and even calculates your weight index. Of course I had to try it. The print on the left is my normal weight with hiking boots (and clothes) and the one on the right is my weight with two backpacks. Notice how I got taller with heave package!

“Luckily” my friend is going back to Finland tomorrow so he is taking some of the stuff back with him. After dragging all that stuff with me for two weeks I now have some idea what it would feel to be obese.
