Overweight, Obese or Fit? Your BMI Knows! Stages of weight are defined by body mass index (BMI). Your BMI is an
index of your weight in relation to your height. The higher your BMI score, the greater your risk of developing heart
disease, type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, stroke and some cancers. Find out your BMI now! The following BMI scoring categories are based on guidelines established by
the National Institute of Health: Under 18.5
indicates you are underweight*
From 18.5 to 24.9 indicates you are at a healthy weight* From 25.0
to 29.9 indicates you are overweight*
Over 30.0 indicates you are obese* *Please
remember that your BMI provides only general health information. No distinction is made between men and woman, old and
young, frame size, activity levels or muscle mass. Please discuss with your healthcare provider if your BMI results
do not accurately reflect your weight and/or level of health. BMI
