Answer

BMI calculators aren't the best indicators of weight and health.

Answer

That website is saying you're overweight  because they want you to buy their meal plan. 
You're NOT overweight. BMI of 23 is average, normal weight.

Answer

BMI is highly outdated and ridiculous to begin with. No you’re not overweight.

Answer

According to a standard BMI calculator. 5'4" and 140 pounds is still in the normal range. And is a BMI of 24.  
Lol idk where you got that BMI calculator but it's not correct in its math.

Answer

My husband is 6'3 and 260lbs (he is a weightlifter) and his doctor said his BMI indicates that he is morbidly obese lol. It doesn't account for muscle or anything like that. Don't read to much into it.

Answer

I’m 5’6” and I should be 150 pounds or so for my weight. So you being your height, they expect your weight to be lower than mine. So according to BMI charts, you’d be considered overweight.
