Weight Calculator
This weight calculator is simply a guide provided to inform you of typical
healthy weight ranges. Your goal weight may or may not fall within
this range. Other information that is frequently gathered when determining
an individual's weight range includes weight history, family weight
history, healthiest weight as an adult, frame size and body composition
(those with more muscle mass will typically weigh more than those
with less muscle).
My goal weight is higher than this range
If your goal weight is higher than this range, you should feel confident
that you are the best person to determine a comfortable goal weight
for you. Your goal weight should be a reasonable weight for you
to maintain and achieve ideal health.
My goal weight is lower than this range
If your goal weight is below this range, it may benefit you to be
aware of the health consequences of an extremely low body weight.
In women, a body weight that is too low may cause amenorrhea, or
lack of menses. This could cause a decrease in bone density due
to the low estrogen levels, which may increase the risk for stress
fractures, osteopenia and osteoporosis. Infertility problems may
also be a concern for women with amenorrhea. Extremely low body
weight may indicate possible nutrition deficiencies or malnutrition.
