Almost everyone should be thinner than they are now. I was not overweight but I thought if I lost any weight I'd look gaunt & malnourished.
During the tyrannical lockdowns over a flu I ate better, worked out more and lost 20lbs of weight. Turns out I looked a lot better. Almost every American could stand to drop some weight.
BMI is a joke, know who counts as overweight by bmi about every ufc fighter, professional athlete, and on and on.
BMI is useful as a rough guide to where your weight should be. 99% of people are not professional athletes.
This, plus God only knows how many professional athletes are on steroids or growth hormones.
No it’s really not, it’s a metric of size despite muscle and the opposite of what any realistically healthy person would achieve
Waist–hip ratio is a much better indicator, imo. That said, don't expect things to change until Seventh Day Adventists stop controlling the narrative around nutrition.
