Your BMI: Is 27.3, which puts you in the overweight category == although this is obviously affected by your recent pregnancy.

27.3: Your bmi currently is 27.3. That falls in the "overweight" range. To go down below overweight, based on your height, the 128lbs should be your goal. Hope that helps. Congrats in the new baby!

BMI = 27.3: The bmi is calculated using the body mass divided by the height. The suggested ideal bmi for a female over 20 is 21.5 while a 27.3 would be considered in the overweight category.This would be expected so soon after delivering a baby.

27: Congratulations on your new baby! You don't have much weight to lose! If your OB gives the Ok, start taking some good daily walks with the baby, drink lots of water, and if you are breastfeeding, keep going! Nursing will really help you get back to your goal weight. Roughly to get you back into the normal 20 to 25 BMI range 129 is about right.
