Calculate your Body Mass Index (BMI)
Body Mass Index, or BMI, is a measurement of body fat based on height and weight.
It can be calculated using pounds and inches: BMI = (weight in pounds x 703) / (height in inches x height in inches).
Or you can use the calculator below:
BMI | Classification | Health Risk |
Under 18.5 | Underweight | Minimal |
18.5 - 24.9 | Normal Weight | Minimal |
25 - 29.9 | Overweight | Increased |
30 - 34.9 | Obese | High |
35 - 39.9 | Severely Obese | Very High |
40 and over | Morbidly Obese | Extremely High |
If you have a BMI of 40 or greater, or a BMI of 35-39.9 and also have an obesity related medical condition such as diabetes, high blood pressure, or sleep apnea, you may be a candidate for weight loss surgery.
BMI is a quick measure to determine if somebody is at a healthy weight. However, it can be controversial because it doesn't take overall health into account. For example, an athletic person could be considered overweight using the BMI metric. Type your numbers into the calculator above to calculate your BMI. Note that BMI is calculated the same for both males and females.

BMI values have different meanings for different body shapes. A major limitation of the BMI is that the BMI value does not indicate the location or distribution of body fat, two factors which are important in heart health and diabetes. If you are at all concerned with your weight or health, consult a doctor or health professional.
