“obesity” is a meaningless concept tbh. it’s just a BMI category and the BMI system is functionally nonsensical. dividing someone’s weight by their height tells you literally nothing about their health or even their body composition

bodybuilders frequently have BMIs that fall under “overweight” or “obese” because muscle weighs more than fat 💀 it’s embarrassing that the US medical institution uses that metric in an official capacity for serious shit like diagnoses and prescribing meds. straightup quackery
