You cannot have an accurate asnwer to that wihtout doing a body composition assesment (skinfolds, dexa, BIA underwater weighting)
However you can estimate your nutrition status easily by calculating yout Body Mass Index
BMI = Weight X Height 2
ie 75kg X (1,75m)2
SCORE
Underweight = <18.5
Normal weight = 18.5-24.9
Overweight = 25-29.9
Obesity = BMI of 30 or greater

you need to use bodyfat scales (not that accurate) or use fat calipers.
fat calipers measure skin and fat on 3 points of the body and then fat percentage can be calculated from the measurements.
