BMI as an indicator of your body type might be valid for people who don't exercise. If you do exercise, BMI isn't quite so good. Who would you prefer,:a sedentary Heidi Klum at 129 lbs, or exercising Heidi Klum at 116 lbs. At both weights, Heidi is considered normal, but we know Heidi will get more men and live longer while sitting at 116 lbs. Like many things, you have to look at the big picture.
Regarding weight vs height, if you think you aren't chubby, look at nursing homes and retirement communities. How many 200+ pound chunkies do you see? Very few. Wanna live a long time? Lose the fat. Whether one would want to live long enough to be stuck in a nursing home... well, that's another story.
