Body Mass Index – BMI
0 Comments Published by Diet Trials February 8th, 2006 in Losing weight, TheoryWhat does weight mean anyway? One of the ways to know where you stand in terms of health and weight is to use the Body Mass Index to work out what weight you should be for maximum health.
There are lots of Body Mass Index Calculators on the web that make it easier for you to get your BMI. Check out this site to calculate yours.
So I am 6′ 1″ and currently 17 stone 9 pounds (or 247 pounds). My BMI is 32.6. If you are 30.0 and above you are classified as obese. Great! To get to the level of being Overweight, and having a BMI of between 25.0 and 29.9, I need to be 16 stone 3 pounds. To get to the “normal” weight level I need to be 13 stone 7 pounds. Now to me if I was 13 and a half stone I would look really ill.
