Are there any measurements for BMI that take into account waist size and all?

So I'm about 5'9, 175, and a BMI calculation puts me in the overweight range, but anyone that seems me will most likely tell you that I'm skinnier than average..and would probably guess I'm about 150 pounds or so, as most of my weight is in my legs..so is there any sort of calculation that takes into account one's body measurements too?

a simple calculator like those are never completely accurate. Cuz some short and stocky people full of muscle will end up w/ a faulty reading that might make them seem overweight.

You are fat, face it, stop making up excuses to make yourself feel better:)

Seriously though, if you are confident that you are not fat, who give a rat's ass about what a little BMI calculators says.
