I am 169cm and weighing 75kg now. I have lost about 11 kilos in last 8 months. According to the BMI calculators I am still an overweight person (which I think I agree). But when I look at the mirror, I find myself just fit enough. I don’t look overweight. I have 19% of fat in my body. I want to shed a few more kilos but if I reach below 72kg, I am afraid I might look too skinny which won’t look good on me.
A little bit background on the kinds of workouts I do - 1. walking 5-8km a day 2. Indoor bike session (Zwift) - 25-35km a day, longer on weekends. 3. Occasions weights (once or twice in a week).
The reason why I follow BMI is to avoid health concerns caused by being an overweight. Nothing adds up, where does this excess weight come from? Should I be going with a feeling or BMI number?
