I am 5:8 and 165 and I am right on the high BMI (25+) according to my doctor. Funny thing is most people say I am skinny and need to gain weight. I think that a lot has to do with individual body types I have pretty big quads and calves.

I do believe that this does mean we are in trouble and is a sign of low testosterone and perhaps too many carbs and not enough exercise. Road march troops.

I bet the ones telling you that are fat. I get the same type of comments.

In the 1980s at the Recruit Depot in San Diego, the first step for determining whether a recruit was over weight was the BMI and the second step was for a corpsman would actually look at the recruit. That second step prevented a lot of mislabels
