A morbidly obese person is someone who is very overweight to the point that it can often cause a shorter lifespan and health problems.

According to the BMI scale:

Underweight: < 18.5

Ideal: 18.5-24.9

Overweight: 25-29.9

Obese: 30-39.9

Morbidly obese: 40-49.9

Super morbidly obese: 50+

BMI (Body Mass Index) is a calculation of height and weight.
