Would that make you "underweight"?

What's your eye colour btw?

So your BMI is around 28 (meaning "overweight")?

Unless you gained weight (or muscle) in the past months, in your profile photos you look like a healthy lean, tall guy. Say, around 75-80kgs.

I have a lot of muscle which weighs a lot. BMI is bad with people like me who are naturally muscular and workout a lot.



In those pics I weighed about 210 lbs or about 94 kg, I shot up to 245 lbs (110 kg) during December but I'm back down to 98 kg now.


I put up a new pic that I took maybe a week ago in my profile on here.

Sometimes I still have trouble believing that I'm really 5'10, I was the ugly duckling in middle school and most of high school. I was average height until about 7th grade when I got frozen on 5 feet even while everyone else was already 5'3 or 5'4. I was still around 5'3 around freshman year of high school which really takes a huge toll on your confidence. Fortunately I grew a lot the next few years and now I'm 5'10! I have a lot of Asian and Hispanic friends and I usually tower over them lol

Interesting.

The human body is so peculiar. I knew a chubby woman, who was around 150cm, and she only weighed at 50kgs. I thought she was at least 60kgs. My mother, who had a much thinner body at that time and is the same height, was 63kgs. Yes, I stood next to them as they weighed in.

Do some people have heavier bones than the others? Even though that's a myth from what I heard....

Yeah, I'm quite underweight although I used to be very skinny. As I said, most of my family is pretty skinny/lean and tall. Only a few of my family members are medium height and they are normal weight/stocky. One of them was the first Vice Captain for the West Coast Eagles, fun fact. I've got blue eyes, normal I suppose. I was about 60kg in year 9 when I was about 183cm, but I've grown out a bit, not fat but more skin and bones

Yeah, I'm skinny too, which is odd for my short height of 163cm (5'3-ish) - Every guy my height is stocky. My BMI is around 20. I checked yours and it's 18. So you're just within the "normal" range (18-24).

I was a bit chubby in high school (BMI was 24 - my highest). I only lost all that weight due to a horrible stomach virus I had in 2008 which went for weeks. I was 16. My BMI plummeted down to a skeletal 15. I was borderline anorexic for two years.

I don't eat that much these days. Like my parents before me, I have GERD and IBS. I'm also picky when it comes to food. I avoid eating stuff that have the potential of being contaminated (namely seafood). Did I mention that I have a huge phobia of vomiting?
