Is 64.5k already an overweight for a 30y/o lady with 5'1 in height?

BMI estimation: Your estimated BMI is 26.8 which is overweight (>/=25). However, BMI has limitations as it may overestimate body fat in athletes & others who have a muscular build while underestimate body fat in older persons & others who have lost muscle. Also, it does not take into account ethnicity. Other methods of assessment such as body composition may be an alternative approach
