I’m 39 years old, male, 198 cm tall, 120 kg weight. My BMI is 30.6 and it falls in the Obese Class I category; but I don’t feel “fat”? I also wouldn’t say I look obese; bulky? sure.

    BMI is a massive oversimplification. It’s a fun stat to look at, but I wouldn’t make serious decisions built on it.

    Depending on your frame your healthy weight could be “underweight” or “overweight” according to BMI scale.
