BMI Calculator
Body Mass Index (BMI) estimates body fat from your height and weight. It's a quick, widely used screening number.
The formula
- Metric: BMI = weight(kg) ÷ height(m)²
- Imperial: BMI = 703 × weight(lb) ÷ height(in)²
WHO categories (adults)
| BMI | Category |
|---|---|
| below 18.5 | Underweight |
| 18.5 – 24.9 | Normal |
| 25 – 29.9 | Overweight |
| 30 and above | Obese |
The tool also shows your healthy weight range — the weights that would put your BMI between 18.5 and 24.9 for your height.
Important
BMI is a general guide, not a medical diagnosis. It doesn't distinguish muscle from fat, so very muscular people can read as "overweight," and it isn't intended for children or pregnancy. For health decisions, talk to a professional.
