Body Mass Index, or BMI, is a measure of body fat based on height and weight. Calculating your BMI can help you determine if you are at a healthy weight.
The formula for calculating BMI is the same for both men and women, but the interpretation of the results is different. For women, a BMI of 18.5 to 24.9 is considered healthy. A BMI of 25 to 29.9 is considered overweight, and a BMI of 30 or higher is considered obese.
