Get your BMI now!!

hey guys! today I urgently asking you guys to check out your BMI. haha. why? because I'm kind of shocked about my recent BMI! =.=


before that, BMI stands for Body Mass Index. According to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), BMI "...is a reliable indicator of total body fat, which is related to the risk of disease and death." BMI measures your weight and height, and is a better way to measure your weight than a scale. A higher BMI is an indicator of increased risks of obesity related disease.

Your BMI will place you in one of the following categories:
  • Those with a BMI below 18.5 are considered underweight.
  • Those with a BMI between 18.5 and 24.9 are considered normal weight.
  • Those with a BMI between 25.0 and 29.9 are considered overweight
  • Those with a BMI of 30.0 and above are considered obese.

In addition to BMI, those who have a waist size of more than 40 inches for men, or 35 inches for women, have a higher risk for obesity-related health problems such as diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart disease.

I checked my BMI, and I was really shocked by the result! 25.7?? huh! I'm overweight!! arrgghh! one year ago I have BMI value of 23.6. what a big change!

whats yours? check out.. its for your own good. Good luck! ngeh =.=

Your score is over 25?
Well, if your belly is not too big, if you regularly exercise and you are eating healthy, you don't have much to worry about. (Me: fuuuhh... nasib baik =.=)

Score lower than 25?
Good for you, but sorry, look at your belly, your exercise pattern and your eating habits first, before you decide you are healty!
