How to read the chart

Each healthy range is the weight that gives a body mass index between 18.5 and 24.9 at that height, using the World Health Organization's adult categories. Below the range is underweight, 25 to 29.9 is overweight and 30 or more is obese. Some guidelines use lower cut-offs (overweight from 23) for people of South Asian and East Asian backgrounds.

To check an exact weight, open your height for the full table, or enter your numbers — in kg or lb, cm or feet — in the BMI calculator. BMI does not measure body fat directly, so pair it with the waist-to-height ratio.
