| body mass index |
Body Mass Index is a measure of relative heaviness/obesity. It is your weight in kg divided by your height in meters squared. A BMI under 20 is considered too thin; a BMI from about 21-25 is considered normal. A BMI between 25-29 is considered overweight, and a BMI over 30 is considered obese. Because it considers both weight and height, it is usually the measure most often used in research for referring to relative sizes.
