Body Mass Index   = 

This is your category according to the Panel on Energy, Obesity, and Body Weight Standards published by American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.

Your BMI is an objective scientific measure, that uses your height and weight. You can calculate your BMI by dividing your weight in kilograms by the square of your height in meters. In other words the algebraic expression for BMI is:

BMI = Kg / (m)2

This program above uses pounds and inches with this formula to calculate your BMI.

BMI = (weight in pounds * 703) / (height in inches * height in inches)

One variable BMI fails to consider is lean body mass. It is possible for a healthy, muscular individual with very low body fat to be classified obese using the BMI formula. If you are a trained athlete, your weight based on your measured percent body fat would be a better indicator of what you should weigh.

If your BMI is below 20 = UNDERWEIGHT
This indicates a lean BMI, which means you have a low amount of body fat. If you are an athlete, this can be desirable. If you are not an athlete, a lean BMI can indicate that your weight may be too low which may lower your immunity. If your BMI and body weight are low, you should consider gaining weight through good diet and exercise habits, to increase your muscle mass.

If your BMI is between 20 and 22 = HEALTHY WEIGHT
This indicates the ideal, healthy amount of body fat, which is associated with living longest, and the lowest incidence of serious illness. Coincidentally, it seems this ratio is what many individuals perceive to be the most aesthetically attractive.

If your BMI is between 22 and 25 = HEFTY (Overweight)
This is still considered an acceptable range, and is generally associated with good health.

If your BMI is between 25 and 30 = PROSPEROUS (Obese)
You are considered “prosperous” and should finds ways to lower your weight, through diet and exercise. You are at increased risk for a variety of illnesses at your present weight. You should lose weight by changing your diet and exercising more. Use the EzeSLIM "slim for life training program" to help you lose weight "effortlessly."

You are definitely "at risk" of developing life-threatening conditions. You should see your doctor as soon as possible for a complete medical check-up and referral to a dietician for rapid weight loss. Use the EzeSLIM program to ease into an effortless weight loss/maintenance program.
