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.
General Operation

2. Lift the LOWER sliding weight and slide it to the right.
Be sure the weight sits in the groove of the roughly
estimated weight.
3. A. Slide the UPPER sliding weight to the right.
B. Slide the weight until the POINTER settles
