Elevated BMI: Your body mass index (bmi), which is what we use to determine "normal" weight (though this doesn't hold true for extreme athletes) is 33.7, or >95th percentile for your age. Bmi is classified as: - underweight = 30 more important than absolute numbers is an overall pattern of healthy eating and exercise. Good luck to you!
