BMI is not the best way to measure whether or not you are overweight. While it is accurate for many, it is not for others. BMI has no way of measuring your bone structure, and whether or not your weight is fat or muscle. If you are worried about your weight, I would recommend you see a doctor. They can take your body fat percentage, and other more accurate tests.

Good luck! Hope this helps. PM me if you ever need.

BMI is horrible because everybodys healthy weight depends on their body frame. Don't go by bmi. As the above user, ask your docter. She/he might also give you tips on how to eat healthy so you feel good.

Yeah BMI sucks they dont factor in bone structure, muscle, breast size, whatever. And anyway its not about how much you weight, its how you look. If your happy with yourself then dont stress! and keep listening to paramore

Heyy
Honestly, dont worry about your BMI. Focus more on your health. As long as you obtain a healthy balanced diet and do at least an hourt of fitness a day then you will be fine .
I loveee Paramore

BMI is a very inaccurate way to prove whether you're in a healthy weight range or not. If you want to know if you're at a healthy weight, go see a doctor. At least there they can weigh you, take your height and all that jazz. That's where the truth is.

If you want to lose weight, do it the healthy way. Eat healthy and work out. Because that's far more effective than starving or purging. <3
