Somebody said I am morbidly obese (see question below) but isnt morbidly obese o!

I checked it out and it says 35!.6 is your BMI but I don't see why she had to use the word Morbidly!.!.!.!.!.Anyway your BMI is in the Highest Category which is Obesity!.!.!.Though it's in the in healthy category I wouldn't say you're Morbidly Obese!.

I'm 5'6 and weigh 187lbs and my BMI is 30!.2 and I'm in the same category as you are!.!.!.all my weight is in the stomach area and most people think I weight a lot less than I actually do!. Anyway don't let that person bother ya!. Go to the gym no matter what size you are!.!.!.I mean you are not there for them!.!.!.and just being there shows that you want to lose weight and that's a good thing, don't you think!? I do!! I go jogging every day for 2 miles (sometimes more)!.!.!.!.that will help you too!.!.!.I lost 3 lbs in a lil over a week I believe!.!.!.that rarely happens for me!.!.!.!.You are doing good though!. Keep up the good work!.

You are correct, unless other factors affect this conclusion (see below)!.

The most commonly used definitions, established by the WHO in 1997 and published in 2000, provide the following values:

A BMI less than 18!.5 is underweight
A BMI of 18!.5
