BMI Short Tables (Metric Units, Colour Version)

Gregory Beekman

Is your weight healthy?

That is the question this book answers.

Simply find your height on the top of a page and then read off the associated weight ranges for your height.

All weights have been pre-calculated (so no maths required!) using BMI, the Body Mass Index. BMI is the standard used by professionals across the globe to measure weight in a way that allows it to be instantly classified as healthy or not.

But turning weight into BMI numbers can seem alien. So this book does it in 'reverse' - using the international BMI values to show what weights make you underweight, a healthy weight, overweight, or an obese weight.

It also includes two new pieces of information for each height that you will find incredibly useful - 1) how much your BMI goes down by for every kilogram of weight you lose, and 2) how many kilograms of weight you have to lose to reduce your BMI by one point.

Being overweight increases your risk of developing health problems, like heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and fatty liver disease, among others. Knowing if your weight is too high can help motivate you to reach a healthy weight.

This book is your ideal companion because knowledge is power. Knowing your BMI numbers puts you in control of your weight.

Note: this book exists in multiple versions: in Metric, Imperial, or US Customary units, and each is available in colour or black & white.
