Obesity
How is it diagnosed?
Obesity/body mass index (BMI) over 30
In general, the following BMI ranges (in kg/m2) classify different weight types:
Underweight: Less than 18.5.
Optimum range: 18.5 to 24.9.
Overweight: 25 to 29.9.
Class I obesity: 30 to 34.9.
Class II obesity: 35 to 39.9.
Class III obesity: More than 40.

BMI isn’t the only tool providers use to classify weight types. Other tools include:
Measuring waist circumference.
Measuring skin thickness using skinfold calipers in certain areas of your body, such as the back of your upper arms and under your shoulder blades.
DEXA scan and air displacement plethysmography (ADP) — these are used less often.

How do I calculate my BMI?
You can calculate BMI yourself with these steps:
Multiply your weight in pounds by 703.
Divide that answer by your height in inches (there are 12 inches in 1 foot).
Divide that answer by your height in inches again.
For example, a person who weighs 180 lbs. and is 5 feet and 5 inches tall (65 inches total) would calculate their BMI in the following way:
180 x 703 = 126,540.
126,540 / 65 = 1,946.769.
1,946.769 / 65 = 29.95.
Their BMI would be 29.9.

Year: 2023
Height 5 f 10 in
BMI 24.89

What is a healthy BMI?
The optimum range for a healthy BMI is considered to be 18.5 to 24.9.
