But I'm so skinny-fat it hurts. I had a turrible drinking problem a year ago and lost what little muscle I had, but came away with a pot belly. I've lost 10 pounds since then but I still have a gut I'm super self conscious about, especially since I'm so skinny everywhere else. I hate it more and more everyday.

My doctor and that chart don't agree. I used to be a landwhale, 300lb 6'3" and now i'm 205 17%bf est. But, before I lifted my doctor was always telling me not to go below 200lb ever because that's underweight and not healthy. According to that chart, you only get out of the Overweight category once you hit 190lb at my height.

maybe a wide-ish belt? Try that. Also, never wear that bra with that dress. Not only is it a little trashy, but the horizontal line doesn't lengthen your figure. It's like when short guys wear horizontal stripes

shoulders could look manly if you dress the wrong way, but apart from that youve got a nice hourglass bodyshape and you arent too fat. reduce bodyfat and youll be fine.

anyone who uses BMI on an individual basis and not solely to measure across populations is dumb as F

and the fact that doctors somehow use this as a measure of health is testament to a failing easy-answer healthcare system

yeah, i get that objective measures of body composition are hard to find, but BMI sucks so much ass that honestly a better alternative is to just look at a person and visually determine if they look healthy or not

>> No.6320592

>>6320414
BMI was invented in 19th century more to compare body types (at that time science was trying to make connections between physical look and personality) than to decide what is thin and what is fat anyway. There's too much variance in different builds.

Also, Ponderal index works much better than BMI for short and tall people - because it cubes the height instead of squaring it, following the law of dimensionality.
