BMI is wank anyway,not usefull for atheletes or anyone training etc. Even the calipers have issues (are you nipping the same place etc etc.) It's like a women getting weighed all the time, there is no point.
I'd measure it visually personally, you can see whether or not you need to lose some fat.

Thats BMI, not bodyfat on the bodydoctors site. And as Carl said is not that useful. Only a guideline for people who dont train really!
You could be 14 Stone of Muscle and relatively short and have a BMI considered Obese yet be in excellent shape.
Calipers and electronic equipment along with the mirror are the best ways to measure bodyfat.
If you want a relative measure of your bodyfat post a pic and I'll take an educated guess

Did the snakes make a massive difference to the bodyfat percentage though?
