Reaching Target Weight
Maintaining proper weight is essential to healthy living. The Body Mass Index
(BMI) is the most widely accepted measurement of weight according to health
professionals. Use the chart below to determine your own BMI by matching your
height in the left hand column with your weight in the center. Anyone, male or
female, with a BMI of 25 to 29 is considered overweight and a body mass index
of 30 is considered obese. Remember to eat right and exercise
NOTE: BMI has some limitations: It can overestimate body fat in people who are very muscular,
and it can underestimate body fat in people who have lost muscle mass, such as the elderly.
