What is BMI?

BMI is a number that indicates whether your weight is healthy for your height. It’s not perfect (it doesn’t account for muscle vs. fat), but it’s a good starting point to understand your health. Here’s what the numbers mean:

Under 18.5: Underweight

18.5 – 24.9: Normal weight

25 – 29.9: Overweight

30 and above: Obesity
