Unless you are skin and bones, according to this, you are obese.

LoL

This BMI is so stupid. When i was in the Army I was 220 at 6' when they taped me for body fat i was at 18% but with this chart I was Overweight.. And by no means was I a muscle bound freak I did not work out much just the (PT) Physical training we did in the morning. Now i am 238 and I wear a size 34 pants I can look down and see my feet and my well you get the picture but according to BMI I am Obese (moderate)
Give me a break!!!!!
Well I guess since I am a big fat fatty pass the cupcakes I be hungry
hmmmmmm Donuts

Both of these links are virtually the same. The first you can enter your height and weight and calculate your BMI...according to the CDC. the second link is just a BMI table to look at.

What a load of #### this is... I am 6'5", 215, 32 waist, and it says I am overweight. Just for giggles, I entered my stats from when I played university football, 6'5", 255, 32 waist. Still said overweight. I fudged numbers until it said I was normal. I'd have to be down to 180 wearing 28 jeans. Last time I was that weight I was 17 and little more than a vertical stick. To be at the bottom end of normal, I'd have to 156 pounds!!! Ever seen a 6'5" guy who weighed 156 pounds? I have, he was a cancer patient.
