Reverse BMI
Oops......Were you looking to calculate BMI the usual way - based on your current weight? Calculate BMI here, then come back here to learn about Reverse BMI!
Want to know what a "healthy" weight for your height is? Well, let's agree on a definition of "healthy" first!
Extra pounds translate into health risks, so after a certain point, those extra pounds stop adding to your character and start adding risk of disease and death.
Body mass index (BMI) is a measure of excess body fat, and it gives a better indication of health risks than body weight alone does.
BMI is therefore used to define "healthy" or "normal" weight.
- BMI 18.5 - 24.9 = Normal weight
- BMI > 25 - 29.9 = "overweight"
- BMI > 30 = "obese"
- BMI < 18.5 = "underweight"
At what weight would your BMI be less than 25?

Try my handy Reverse BMI Calculator! Enter your height, then try 24 for a healthy BMI. Or maybe, if your BMI is above 30, it'd help your goal-setting to see what weight would bring you down to a BMI of 29.
