I'm 5'5 and weigh 280 lbs. am i morbidly obese?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: Hi. Your BMI is 46.5, morbidly obese. At your young age, that places you at very high risk for obesity-related diseases in the future. Naturally you want to eat healthily and exercise regularly, but you should also consider weight loss drugs and bariatric surgery. Good luck!
