Completely different circumstances. But you already said you are unhappy - so work towards getting to a point where you are happy.
Exactly why I said BMI is bullshit. I have extremely strong legs. Ever since I started putting muscle on in my legs is when my weight went from 145 to 165. I've been around that ever since.

Body fat percentage is what really needs to be watched.
