BMI calculator : The easiest thing to do is enter “BMI calculator” in your search engine of choice, and they usually just ask you for your height and weight (some may ask for additional information to tailor recommendations to you). A BMI of 18.5 to <25 is normal weight; between 25 and <30 is overweight; And 30 and above are different classes of obesity. The formula for BMI is: 703 x weight (lbs) / [height (in)]2.
