Know if you need to lose weight

Health specialist use a measure called BMI, short for Body Mass Index. Body mass index (BMI) is a measure of body fat based on height and weight that applies to both adult men and women. This gives a good measure of your total body fat. BMI compares your height and weight. It shows if you are underweight, at a healthy weight, or overweight.

You know how many pounds are there in 1 kg. Do not know let me help you, it is 1 kilogram = 2.20462262 pounds. Check out what your BMI is by using the BMI calculator.

BMI Category
Below 18.5 Underweight
Between 18.5 - 24.9 Healthy Weight
Between 25 - 29.9 Overweight
Over 30 Obese


Look at the BMI chart to find out how much weight you need to lose to move from obese to overweight or from overweight into a healthy range. Knowing this can help you set a good weight loss goal.

I'm also 19, 5'3, but I weigh 100lbs. That's probably cuz I'm asian and asians have small body frames. It can depend on ur muscle mass, family genes, and culture too.

Answer 4

Yep, that's fine. Your BMI is 23 and that is within the healthy range of weights for your height. More importantly, check your body fat percentage is less than 30% and that your waist measurement is less than 32 inches. That is probably a much better indicator of whether you are healthy or not HTH : )

Answer 5

You may be a little too short for that weight (by the average anyway), but everyone carries their weight differently. 110 Lbs may be closer to a good weight for your height.

Answer 6

i think u r lil over weight
