I'd practically be a skeleton at a healthy BMI. Anything less than 35 and I look sickly.
I'm convinced the BMI scale is slanted towards fat.
My last med visit report said I had a BMI of 26.7 and listed as overweight (6'2", 205 lbs). They are freaking nuts. I would have to lose 15 pounds to get to a BMI of 24. I'd be a skeleton as well.

I believe it assumes that most people carry very little muscle mass.

Do you lift weights? If no, you are overweight.

I'm 6'3 190 and looking to drop another 10 by April.
Not close to a skeleton or concentration camp survivor.

Don’t starve yourself king. You’re beautiful just the way you are. Real women like curves, only dogs like bones. You’re not a real man if you weigh less than 200 lbs

What I discovered is at 185 I could run/bike faster and further than I had ever imagined. And I just felt better. Yeah, I'm thin. But I'm in shape. These days I lift more than bike/run, but just don't eat much (or stupidly).

You should try it, forget about how you look (insecurities).
