Bmi is bullshit. With bmi at 6 feet 4 inches I should be around 150 which then I can put my hand under my ribs. My doctor was even concerned and want to put me on Insure because of how I looked and yet going off of bmi the number was fine.

150 is underweight (barely) by BMI for 6’4". 180lb is in the lower half of healthy for that height.

BMI doesn’t work well on an individual level, though it misses in the other direction more often (overfat but not overweight is more common than overweight and lean).

Good for you. 150 lbs would seem a bit light for that height.

150lbs for your height is underweight, 200lbs put you on the top of the healthy range.

So yeah, according to BMI you should look healthier at 200lbs rather than 150lbs
