Estimate the weight range that corresponds to the CDC adult healthy BMI category for a given height.
How the estimate works
For adults age 20 and older, CDC lists a healthy BMI category from 18.5 to less than 25. This calculator converts those BMI boundaries into weights for the height entered.
Example: At 175 cm, BMI 18.5 corresponds to about 56.7 kg and BMI 25 corresponds to about 76.6 kg, so the category is approximately 56.7 kg to under 76.6 kg.
Important limitation
BMI is a screening measure, not a diagnosis or a personalized target weight. It does not directly measure body fat or account for all individual health factors. This tool is for adults 20 and older.
