Overweight. Slightly. On the verge of being chubby.
Standing 6 feet and weighing at 180~185 pounds. Not a lot of muscle, which means that a large portion of the mass is made of fats.

obese is a proper medical term, any body with a BMI 30 or over is obese and anybody with a BMI of 40 or more is morbidly obese (like that guy in the picture) which again it still a medical term.dathwampeer said:
although BMI is not fool proof, I think the OP wants a general description with your BMI + body shape so that conflicting information can be discovered and validated to the right area
Chubby, I guess. Thankfully that is mostly hidden so nobody would really notice very well. I look much more "built" than I actually am, meaning people are more likely to think my slightly larger size is in muscle, not fat. The person who would say so however... well.... lets just say they probably would end up on the floor.

I'd consider that to be undermassed...Skobvs said:
But seriously though, I've been 6'3" for most of my life, with my minimum weight being 170 lbs right out of boot camp, which was actually too darn thin. I struggled with my weight a bit and a few years later I was 220 lbs, but a buff 220 with pretty much no visible fat. BMI will tell you that 220 is too much, and want you to lose 20 lbs, to which I say screw that hippy-ass stuff! The only reason I was ever 170 was because I was lazy and never worked out. If I ever got down to 130 I'd have to lose bone mass or something. I actually am big boned. Currently I'm sporting about 300 lbs and am obese. If I could get it back down to 240 I'd be pretty content.
I'm in the healthy range. My BMI is 22 ish. I'm also one of those detestable people who has a hummingbird metabolism.
I voted normal. I'm 189cm or 6'2" and weigh between 72Kg(158.7lbs) and 75Kg (165.3lbs) depending on how much I've eaten/drank that day.
At the moment I'm growing a bit of a belly due to my lack of excersize over the uni break which ends in a week. but my bottom couple sets of ribs are still visible. Confusing.
I don't know what normal would be but I think I fit that description best. I have very low body fat and a low BMI. But I don't think I'm skinny. I'm not muscular or particularly fit at the moment either.
Can't wait to dp prac at uni and look bad =].
(I have performance based studies which involve physical exercise in a class full of mostly meat heads. I sometimes feel self-concious which is uncomfortable and a new feeling to me.)

5'7" and weigh 50kg (110 pounds for those in America)
I think I fall into the 'skinny' category but then again, im not exactly tall so...I think I might just fit into the 'thin' category

Normal. 6ft 1, 160lbs (floats about abit around the 11 & 1/2 stone mark) and built like a drainpipe glued to a clothesline.
People forget that living an obese lifestyle will end up with your life cut in half. Probably worse than being a normal weight and smoking a carton of ciggerates a day. The norm for weight goes up and up over the years. The average life span of Americans is gonna be shit very very soon. Probably by 2020 kids are going to be dropping dead from heart attacks in high school.
Overweight, but I have a low metabolism, a heavy build, a high rate of muscle and a medication that causes me to gain weight. And I'm a girl, which also makes for more natural fat.
Even so, I could be healthier, and I don't make excuses for my diet or lack of intensive exercise. When I get motivated, I am one curvy hot chick
