Not really; the last person that I heard say it was a Dietician. If that were the case why do Asian countries use different BMI milestones than we do? Because, on a population level scale, they have slighter builds than Caucasians, and they noticed that in their populations, the negative effects became noticeable at a lower BMI.

^ That is the link to photos, I am around 5’7 and weigh around 180. I wear a women’s size 10-12/ M-L

If we are looking at a BMI chart, I understand 180 is overweight but some people carry their weight well.
Yep!
