Do you really have a weight problem?

If you want to work out your own Body Mass Index, the formula is:

Weight in kilograms
_____________________________

Height in metres x height in metres

So, for example, if your current weight is 10 stone 10 lbs (150 lbs) or 68 kilos, and you are 5ft 6 ins, or 1.67 metres, the sum works out:

68
_____________________________

1.67 x 1.67

=  24.38

24.38 is a BMI just within Government recommendations based on heart disease, and quite close to the marker figure used in the osteoporosis research.
