Calculating your Body Mass Index (BMI)

Step 1/font color>

   
What is your accurate height and weight?  You will use an interactive tool 
to calculate your body mass index, or BMI.  

When you use the tool you must type in your height and your weight and then 
click "calculate".  Write your body mass index number after it is calculated 
on the tool.
  
Now, click here to 
go to the interactive BMI calculator.  Remember 
to click the back arrow to return to this page.   

A BMI of 25.0-29.9 is considered "overweight".  A BMI of 30.0 or greater is 
considered "obese".  What category is your BMI?   

Now, click "step 2" on the navigation bar at the top of this page to go on 
to the next phase of your quest.
