Body Mass Index Charts Raleigh

Please see the charts below to determine what your approximate Body Mass Index (BMI) is.

BMI uses a mathematical formula that takes into account both a person’s height and weight but not gender. The BMI formula calls for dividing a person’s weight in kilograms by his or her height in meters, squared (BMI=kg/m2). To make it easier to calculate a person’s BMI, many possible variations of height and weight have been entered into a BMI chart. This same BMI chart can be used by anyone, regardless of gender, race, or ethnicity.

At Carolina Aesthetics and Weight Loss Center, we can offer LAP-BAND® System weight loss surgery for patients who weigh up to 275 lbs. or whose BMI is less than 45.
