I calculated your BMI (body mass index), which takes your height and weight into consideration. There are 4 BMI categories:
* Underweight = <18.5
* Normal weight = 18.5-24.9
* Overweight = 25-29.9
* Obesity = BMI of 30 or greater

You have a BMI of 23.8, which means you are of a normal weight!

A better question would be, are you healthy?

You do not have to be model thin to be healthy, this is what is important.

I dont remember the formula but it takes into acount mostly height and weight. in my opinion its a really flawed system I hated when they used it in school.
