Health Risks of Obesity

para>Your body mass index (BMI)

Find your height (in feet and inches) in the top row. Then find your weight (in pounds) in the first column. Now find where the column for your height and the row for your weight meet. That is your BMI. For example, if you are 5-feet-9-inches tall and you weigh 260 pounds, your BMI is 38. You can also go online to www.uptodate.com/patients and search for "BMI. " � There you will find a calculator that will tell you what your BMI is if you type in your height and weight.
