Of course you feel fine when you are 20 but if you keep at that level of BMI you almost certainly will encounter problems as you get older.
Imagine a chain smoker dying of cancer, that same chain smoker felt fine when he was a smoker at 20. What you are doing is actually far more damaging to your health than smoking or heavy drinking. Think about that every time you see a advert on smoking or heavy drinking remember what you are doing is much worse.
I'm not trying to insult you but wake you up to how much damage you are doing to your body. If it was possible to be obese and lead a long full life then I would tell you to go ahead and be happy but it isn't. That might suck but it is reality. At your weight a heavy drinking and heavy smoking normal weight person is likely to outlive you, think about that.
Doctor says I'm "obese" but I feel okay. Should I lose weight?
