I think I'm skinny when I am fat

I don't know if this happens to anyone else because I can't seem to find any information on it.

When I don't look at the mirror, I have a set image of myself in my mind. I think I'm still the skinny self I was a few years back. I'm currently overweight based on bmi even though I work out 6 times a week and eat about 1800kcal for about 5ft (154cm)

I usually think I look fine until I see myself in pictures and I start to notice my arms and tummy and thighs look fat. And I start to wonder if I need to lose weight.

I don't know if anyone understands the feeling of I think I look fine but based on scientific or normal standards I should be losing weight cos it's healthier.

Also, based on my weighing scale my body fat is 38% (I'm female btw) but I don't know how accurate it is, which is still high. But i have a lot of muscle and strength compared to my other peers. Should cutting fat be a concern?
