Body Mass Index or BMI, is a measurement used to assess health risks of obesity. Body Mass Index (BMI) is calculated by dividing body weight (lbs.) by height in inches squared (in2) and multiplying that amount by 704.5. The metric calculation for body mass index (BMI) is kg/m2. Obesity is an excess of total body fat, which results from caloric intake that exceeds energy usage.
