BMI and picking a goal weight

@saintor1 what is the source of your info-graphic?
The Asian numbers seem to be broadly correct (normal BMI being 18.5 to 23, 23 to 25 being overweight, 25+ being obese)
However I take issue with the low risk designation for underweight as actual risk at that level is probably more similar to that of obesity as opposed to the lower health risk levels that apply to the overweight and normal weight categories.2 -
My goal weight is between 165-175 I think the way my frame is made that will be good for me but more importantly I just wanna be healthy1
