Fran:
Your Weight is Ideal



Your BMI is 20.6 - a healthy BMI falls between 18.5 and 25

Congratulations, you are the perfect weight for your height.
Even though you may not be entirely happy with your weight, you are healthy.
So gain or lose a few pounds if you want, but don't go too crazy!

Just wondering here:  Wouldn't you think that there'd be different charts for men and women?

I've always thought this BMI index seems hokey. First of all, muscles weigh more than fat. So you could actually be more fit, but have a worse score. Second, why is the formula so complicated? Couldn't it just say, if you're wider from side to side than you are up and down, you're overweight?

You Are Somewhat Overweight



Your BMI is 25.8 - a healthy BMI falls between 18.5 and 25

While you aren't obese, you could use to lose a few pounds (unless you're very muscular).
Your BMI puts you at a slightly higher risk for type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and certain cancers.
Don't starve yourself or crash diet. See a doctor to learn how to lose weight safely.

Age has caught up with me!
