As for the comments about BMI... I think it is fairly accurate for average body types.
If you really did have so much muscle that BMI wasn't accurate for you, you'd definitely know it because you'd have to be in the gym most days of the week doing some serious weightlifting. So unless you are very athletic (to the point that training and lifting are a big part of your daily life) it is not very likely that BMI just doesn't apply to you.
If your BMI puts you above the healthy range, and you aren't seriously athletic, I think you're kidding yourself to say it's because you're muscular. It's actually really tough to put on pounds of muscle, especially for women. It's not something you do by taking a walk every now and then or by being lightly active in your day to day life.
BMI is a health-risk thing. It's not about looking hot.
Bone size can be a minor issue, but it's not as if some people's skeletons are huge and thick and other people's are light and lanky. Bone structure (small-medium-large) plays a minor role in weight but it can't explain being, say, 30 lbs outside of your healthy range for your height.
