              Calculate Your Body Mass Index (BMI)

              Rather than relying only on the bathroom scale to tell you if you're overweight, experts say you should also know your body mass index (BMI). BMI takes into account your weight and your height to indicate body fat. The goal for most people is a BMI that's over 18 and under 25.

              This calculator is not intended to replace the evaluation of a health care professional. If results indicate that you may be obese, it's important to share the results with your doctor. (Need a primary care physician? Find one here.)
