@lunemarie that'll change with age

Because you can clearly tell whether someone is fat or not

if they're muscular

BMI is for fat people to know just HOW fat they are

My doctor makes me keep eating more but he’s not worried now

I'm 280 and I barely even have a belly

@livid_scrooge

fix your keyboard

@PureEvilPie in fairness bmi is meant to represent the amount of fat you have in your body

but it changes depending on how you measure it

Don’t you know how to utilize HTML

yea it's not perfect

and thus some measurement methods arent effective for all body types

but it's decent for most people

My goal is 40kg

but not muscular people

Yes but my POINT IS

@Lucienne d'Anwyl you saw the gif yet?

specifically for fat people or normal people

yea idk, not when most gyms and hospitals have free dexa scans, or alteast cheap dexa scans. that shows exactly how much fat % there is

You can LOOk at muscular people

who have a relatively small amount

Lucienne I just said that

@Ralin Storm ye i saw it

literally just now

19.5 bmi would be pretty good

that's how she looks

skinny af

you can look at regular people and tell if theyre fat

Really no way

it isnt exactly hard

Exactly

but bmi is about whether youre in danger of certain complications

which dont really apply to muscular people

@livid_scrooge

@livid_scrooge

how tf do you determine BMI anyway

@Ralin Storm step 1 you're obese
