Be Careful, This Woman Will Remember Everything

All that OEA:

A British nurse was refused permission to live in New Zealand because she weighed 21 stone, official documents disclosed.

...She was offered a job in a home and hospital for the elderly in a provincial town in New Zealand, documents from the country's Residence Review Board said, and applied for residence in March 2008.

But medical advisors calculated that with a weight of 21 stone and height of 5ft 1in, her body mass index (BMI) was 55.2, putting her at a high risk of developing health problems.

...The NHS says that a healthy body mass index is between 18.5 and 24.9, while an index of over 40 means the person is "very obese".

...Officials said if she reduced her BMI to 40 her application could be reconsidered.

But they found that currently, despite the woman being in good health, the family "would make a sound, but it could not be said significant, contribution to New Zealand".
