BMI 25.8 — Overweight.

A healthy range for your height is 122–164 lb (55–74 kg). BMI is a screening tool, not a diagnosis — muscular builds skew high.

  • A 1–2 lb/week loss target is sustainable — pair a 500 kcal daily deficit with strength training.
  • Track waist circumference too — under 40 in (men) / 35 in (women) is a stronger heart-risk signal than BMI.
  • Re-check every 8–12 weeks, not daily — weight noise drowns real trends.

Frequently asked questions

Is BMI accurate?

It's a screening tool, not a diagnosis. It doesn't distinguish muscle from fat, so athletes and lifters often read 'overweight' while being lean. Pair BMI with waist circumference and body-fat trends.

What BMI range is healthy?

18.5–24.9 is the standard adult healthy range. Under 18.5 is underweight, 25–29.9 is overweight, 30+ is obese. Older adults (65+) tend to do better slightly above the mid-range.

How often should I check BMI?

Every 8–12 weeks. Weekly noise from water, sodium, and cycle timing drowns real signal.

Does BMI differ for kids?

Yes — children use age- and sex-specific percentiles, not adult cutoffs. This calculator is for adults 20+.
