My BMI says I'm obese, but I'm not. I'm 6'2 225 pounds. I work out 4-5 times a week. According to the BMI chart I'm 40 pounds overweight

unless your body fat is around 15% at that weight and height your pretty large.

as long as your healthy that's all that matter

there is a difference from being over weight a little bit and obese.

Your size would be awesome for a power lifter

My cousin is 6'7 and 410 lbs, I don't think anyone has ever called him obese to his face.

If you're over 20% body fat then you're pretty tubby.

If you're fatter than me, you're a fatty that needs to go ahead and drop dead.

If you're skinnier than me, you're a girly man that needs to eat a cheeseburger.

Yup, if you have "dicky do", you're fat.

You're in the overweight range, not obese.

A lot of people don't realize fitness, shred, healthy are not the same thing. You can be shredded and be very unhealthy. You can be kind of tubby and be very fit. And you can be healthy and be neither of those things.

BMI does not count in muscle weight.

Kind of this. I'm just shy of 6' and usually weight in at about 165#. That seems like a pretty decent weight, and I wear a 32 pants, but I would still say I'm "fat". I still have some fat to burn off of me and would never say I'm "in shape" or "skinny". I can still grab a love handle for sure. I'm just a naturally "thin" person who happens to currently have a healthy layer of body fat.
