BMI percentile: For adults, we define underactive, normal, overweight & obesity by calculating body mass index. For children & teens, we use BMI percentile w/normal ranging from 5-95% for age. Check out http://nccd.cdc.gov/dnpabmi/Calculator.aspx to calculate BMI then go to http://www.cdc.gov/healthyweight/assessing/bmi/childrens_bmi/about_childrens_bmi.html to determine BMI percentile.
