BMI = total crap
at least for me. Apparently mine is 17, which classes me as moderately underweight. I just have a very fast metabolism. I eat when I'm hungry, sometimes I eat when I'm not hungry and sometimes (rarely) I ignore my hunger. Works out to be enough food overall. I just have an incredibly fast metabolism and a slim frame. The only way I've ever gained weight is by adding muscle by cycling and walking lots coupled with eating heavy rich winter foods. I still only gained a couple of kilos, and noone could tell that I was fatter.
And I've heard of very fit, muscular people having BMIs that class them as overweight - because muscle weighs more than fat does.
Just for fun, work out your BMI. Since we all know it's a load of bull, it doesn't really matter what you get.
