BMI is not the best metric to use. I'm 6'2 and should be 180 pounds or so according to it (I was at one point and looked malnourished).
its stupid. im 6'1' and the one time i was in the best shape of my life i was at 185 and was trying to win the state time trial championship and i fasted for like 3 days to try & lose a couple extra pounds and i couldn't drop an ounce.
like you i looked gaunt and undernourished but according to the BMI index i was still bordering on the 'overweight' section. never got into the 'normal' range despite training for hours a day and racing every other weekend.
eta i'm well over 200 now but i'm not racing and i can eat like a normal person and enjoy life even with a bit of a dad bod.
