This thing is interesting, it shows pictures of actually people at certain heights and weights.

What I find interesting is this is what your typical (of average height) obese person looks like:

According to those descriptions, I would look somewhat like this:


Very interesting(though they did not have a 6'1 one..this one is 6'0)

Pretty close, but

I am not quite as large as this woman
But then again, I am an hourglass
I carry my weight differently
And my boobs are bigger

Anyways, 5'8 240lbs

[Peppermint]

I don't know my weight, I haven't measured in years, but I suspect it's around 60kgs. (this woman is 63 kgs) I'm also 175 cm in height.

cool thread
ok so she has about the same weight and height as me but we have very different proportions, i have an hourglass figure so my waist is much smaller and my boobs are bigger, and you can't really tell with this dress, but i'm pretty sure my hips are bigger too. i don't think this chart is good for visual bmi, but its something that could be done for fun.

 

[Free Mind]

I'm that cool kid.

5'11''. 135-140lbs.

 

[NiennaLadyOfTears]

This is what I look like (that's not me though):

I look closer to the 5'4" 140 than I do the 5'4" 150, but I'm actually 5'4" 160.

 

[jn56uytrx]

About 5'7" and 155 lbs. (not me, from the photographic height/weight)

BMI is worthless to anyone with any kind of significant muscle mass.

BMI is worthless to anyone with any kind of significant muscle mass.

Or significant lack thereof

Or significant lack thereof

I suppose so, although I think often times the BMI scales assume a significant lack of muscle two people at the same height and weight can often times look completely different. Especially if they're between the overweight and obese ranges.

 

[Arsal]

I don't look nearly as thin as this man, however.
