Body Mass Index Calculator - Am I overweight?

Patients frequently ask me am I overweight? "Am I of normal weight?" "Am I obese?" or "Am I fat?" I will show you how to use a body mass index calculator. I will explain how doctors look at weight and how we calculate the body mass index or BMI as it is known for short. This is a simple calculation utilizing weight and height. It tells whether your underweight, of normal or healthy weight, overweight or in one of the obesity categories. The BMI however has limitations which I will review. The body mass index is not appropriate for certain people; I will explain this. The BMI is very relevant with our current obesity epidemic. I will tell you what you should weigh and discuss how obesity affects health. I discuss the health effects of obesity. The take-home message is that you should take steps to achieve a healthy BMI.
