My BMI

While reading a magazine, I came across an article of "Celebrities and their BMI".......and I got down to calculating my BMI (weight in relation to height). As per the calculation, I found that I fall under the Normal Weight category....... and if I were to lose the minimum 10 pounds that I badly need to.......I would still fall under this category! Yippee!!

To calculate your BMI, here's the simple equation:-

BMI = weight (kg) ÷ height (m)2
example, if weight = 52 kg and height = 1.5 m,
then BMI would be, 52 ÷ (1.5 x 1.5)
BMI = 23.1

Classification of weight by BMI:-

Below 18 = Underweight
18.5 - 24.9 = Normal Weight
25 - 29.9 = Overweight
30 - 39.9 = Obese
40 and above = Morbidly Obese

Even though the calculations has been kind...........I know I am too healthy! The excess mass of Protoplasm from all the wrong places needs to go!
