what's your body fat that's all that matters in terms of long term health.
I'm 6'0 248 lbs. according to the BMI scale I'm obese at 30+ but I have 9% body fat.

According to the Body Mass Index, you are in the "overweight" category (NOT obese, though). But it's harder to tell with Males because you could be a lot muscular than we know. If you're chubbier, then it's probably not a good overweight. But if you're just muscular, then it's okay.

Your calculatoed BMI (body mass index) is 28.9
The categories are:
18.5 and under Underweight
18.6-24.9 Normal weight
25-29.9 Overweight
30 and over Obese
However, your BMI doesn't mean everything. Are you active, eating healthy and toned?

Not enough information to answer that... are you muscular, or are you flabby, do you have a gut.... all depends on your musculature really
