Sorry, you are overweight but not obese.

Obese.

It's considered Obese. Your bmi has to be below 30 to qualify as just being overweight.

Obese = BMI of 30 or greater

Sorry but you are obese - i looked it up. Just type bmi into a search engine and any of the websites will give you a chart. The chart is:
if your bmi is:
less than 18.5 - underweight
18.5-24.9 - normal weight range
25-25.9 - overweight
above 30 - obese

just obese

clinically obese:
Category BMI range - kg/m2 BMI Prime
Starvation less than 16.5 less than 0.60
Underweight from 16.5 to 18.5 from 0.6 to 0.74
Normal from 18.5 to 25 from 0.74 to 1.0
Overweight from 25 to 30 from 1.0 to 1.2
Obese from 30 to 35 from 1.2 to 1.4
Clinically Obese from 35 to 40 from 1.4 to 1.6
Morbidly Obese greater than 40 greater than 1.6

It depends on your height.
But more likely overweight.

BMI of over 35 is considered morbidy obese, but don't worry too much. Check out other things like body fat percentage or hip to waist ratio because BMI calculators are not accurate if you are very heavily built or work out a lot and have a lot of muscle on your frame.

Based on the tables, you would be obese but the BMI talbes don't factor in body frame or fat percentage. Some like me are very morbidly obese and enjoy the way we are. My BMI at 640 pounds is off the chart and I don't worry. I enjoy the way I am, love being my size and am happy.

obese

ideally your BMI should be between 20% and 25%
