Weight Management
Although it seems the world is constantly pursuing weight loss, not everyone needs to be on a diet. Below is a body mass index (BMI) chart. Although it is not a complete indicator of health (why?) it is a good place to start.
| BMI | Description | Comments |
|---|---|---|
| < 19 | Underweight | May be medically-necessary to gain weight. |
| 19-24 | Normal | Maintain good eating habits and tone. |
| 25-29 | Overweight | Examine lifestyle. Make positive changes to avoid gaining weight. |
| 30+ | Obese | See a healthcare professional to determine the best weight loss program for you. |
