Body Mass Index Chart

with weight loss goals

This Body Mass Index Chart (BMI chart) is made using the CDC guidelines. By following your weight and height you can find your BMI. You can also quickly see which category you fall into. You can also use these categories as goals. Step by step, goal by goal, you can go from mobidly obese to obese to overweight to healthy. So that it could be easily read, I put the body mass index chart on two pages.

A word of caution. This information is just a rough guideline. A doctor would also look at other factors such as ability to breath and sleep at night, circulation, heart condition... to determine these various levels. This chart also rounded numbers to the nearest whole number.

Some people think that only skinny people can be on this BMI chart, but see what John Barban has to say about BMI Charts.

If you weight more than is on this chart, try this one:

If you are having problems with the chart and want to use a calculator, go here to calculate ideal weight based on a BMI chart.

If your weight is on this body mass index chart you may very well be concidered obese and need to lose some weight. Do not feel alone, I need to lose weight again. Just remember that BMI is only an estimate, if you are in really good athletic shape you may not be obese. (Even atheletes may weight too much as even muscle can put an extra load on the body.) If you feel that you may be athletic, look at some of the informationon this web site that deals with % fat and body measurements.

Burn the Fat Feed the Muscle: This is the the source I go to when my body mass index indicates I need to lose weight again.
First I was impressed, a huge e book filled with information and advice. Then I was disappointed; it seemed too simple. Despite my reservations, I did my writing assignments for motivation, I did my simple eating plan. I lost the weight that I wanted to lose. I continue to keep my muscles up. About a year later after I had gained 10 pounds back, I pulled out the e book and quickly lost the weight again. Try it
I am also impressed by the way this health expert encourages you to use the power of the pen to help motivate you.
