The Body Mass Index
This is a method of calculating your ideal body weight from your height
The BMI is a way of measuring your weight, taking into account your height. Your therapist can calculate this for you, or you can do it yourself using the formula:
BMI = Weight in kg
[Height in m] x [Height in m]
If you prefer to use imperial units use the formula:
BMI = Weight in lb x 703
[Height in inches] x [Height in inches]
Are you a healthy weight, overweight or obese?
'Healthy weight', 'overweight' and 'obese' are defined by reference to your BMI - see the table below.
| Body Mass Index | |
|---|---|
| Underweight | Below 18.5 |
| Healthy weight | 18.5 to 25 |
| Overweight | 25 to 30 |
| Obese | Over 30 |
