BMI challenge

The office has decided to do a BMI challenge for the next 13 weeks!  We started today.  everyone is assigned a random number and in a spreadsheet you enter your Height and Weight and your waist measurement.  My BMI is 25.01  which is technically overweight!  I never would have guessed I was OVERWEIGHT!!!! I know I have a few pounds to lose but really overweight.  No wonder they think the entire US is overweight.  you have to be super thin to be considered "normal"  I wear  size 10 pant and a medium shirt and that makes me overweight.  Yikes!  The good thing to know is that I only have to lose 1 pound to be back to considered normal, but I think I want to lose closer to 10 - 15, just to be safe and to stay in the "normal" zone of the BMI calculator.
