Calculate Your BMI

Morbid obesity can be a fatal disease that affects your health, life span, and quality of life. If you are 100 pounds or more above your ideal body weight, you may be suffering from morbid obesity. A common measure of obesity is Body Mass Index (BMI). Your BMI, especially when accompanied by one or more co-morbid condition, is important to consider when finding treatment. Another measure of obesity is the Ideal Weight Chart. Discuss your BMI and ideal weight with your primary care physician or a surgeon in your area if your BMI indicates an obesity-related health risk.
