Bmi's just janky in general. I'm overweight, I won't deny at all, but if I weighed 120 pounds like it says I should, I wouldn't be anything but skin and bones. I can stand to lose weight (and I'm doing so progressively) but my muscle and bone density is way too high for 120 to be a healthy weight for me.

Personally, 145's kinda where I wanna get to eventually. My blood pressure, heart rate, and blood sugar are all in tip top shape and I'm not overweight to the point that my extra baggage is hurting my joints or anything so really I just want to fit smaller clothes is all. *shrug*

Well, that teaches me to skim.

I guess BMI is accurate only for me.

A quick comparison of BMI charts on that site appears to show the women's chart and men's chart as identical.

Yeah, I saw that.

This is what I get when I try to research things when I'm actually paying attention to something completely different. I only skimmed it. I'd say that if they shifted every category over one and changed "severely underweight" to "dead" then this makes for a much better version of the chart.
