Frequently asked questions
What is the ideal weight for my height?
It depends on frame and sex. This tool shows the BMI-based healthy range plus a Devine-formula ideal weight as a reference.
Is ideal body weight accurate for everyone?
It's a rough reference. Muscle mass, frame size and age all affect a healthy weight — not a diagnosis.
How is the healthy range calculated?
It's the weight range for a BMI of 18.5 to 24.9 at your height: weight = BMI × height(m)².
