How Your Healthy Weight Range is Calculated
Your healthy weight range is defined as the weight interval that maintains a standard normal Body Mass Index (BMI) of **18.5 to 24.9**.
The Mathematics of Healthy Weight Boundaries
Using height in meters ($H$), we rearrange the standard BMI formula ($\text{BMI} = W / H^2$) to solve for weight:
- **Minimum Healthy Weight:** $W_{\text{min}} = 18.5 \times H^2$
- **Maximum Healthy Weight:** $W_{\text{max}} = 24.9 \times H^2$
- To convert resulting kilograms to pounds, divide by $0.45359237$.
Disclaimer. BMI healthy weight ranges are guidelines based on population statistics. They do not substitute for clinical diagnostics or personalized body composition profiling (muscle-to-fat ratios, waist circumference checks, etc.).
