The most common way to
find out whether you're overweight or obese is to figure out your body mass
index (BMI). BMI is an estimate of body fat, and it's a good gauge of your risk
for diseases that occur with more body fat.
BMI is calculated from
your height and weight. You can use the chart below or the Body Mass Index
Calculator on the Right Side Column of this blog to figure out your BMI. Or, you health
care provider can measure your BMI.
