Am I considered overweight?

Question

I'm 5'3" and about 200lbs. Am I considered overweight?

Answer

I'm 5ft 6 and 191 lbs. I'm bordering on obese according to the health services "ideal weight range" but personally I think this chart is ridiculous not every woman is the same and not every woman wants to be stick thin and starve. 
It's about how you feel about your weight personally and if your content with yourself

Here's a chart that is supposed to be the ideal on UK nhs weights

Answer

I never go by my BMI just by how my clothes fit/look and what I'm happy with. If I went by my BMI it says I'm obese but I also wear a 38H. It doesn't take into account your body type. I don't like it!

I'm 5'4ish 175. Not my ideal weight but I'm not unhappy either.

Honey, I'm 5'3 and 188lbs, they put "obesity" as one of my diagnosis at the doctors office. It will now forever be in my health history list.. grrr that makes me sad

Answer

You are 35.4 BMI so technically yes you are over weight but at that BMI your weight is likely not affecting fertility and you should have no problem having a healthy successful pregnancy.
