Yes, that's in the "morbidly obese" category. A BMI above 25.0 is considered to be overweight, and a BMI above 30.0 is morbidly obese.

Why does use of the BMI overestimate the prevalence of obesity in the African-American population?

The BMI formula uses weight and height to estimate body fat, but it doesn't account for variations in body composition. African-Americans tend to have higher muscle mass and bone density compared to other populations, leading the BMI to classify them as overweight or obese when they may actually be healthier. This can result in an overestimation of obesity rates in the African-American population.
