How the healthy weight range is calculated
A “healthy weight” here means any weight that puts your BMI between 18.5 and 24.9 — the range linked to the lowest health risk. We rearrange the BMI formula: weight = BMI × height², using 18.5 and 24.9 to get the lower and upper bounds.
Why a range, not a single number
There is no single “ideal” weight. Healthy bodies come in different shapes, and factors like muscle mass and frame size shift where you sit within the range. Aim to stay within the band rather than chase an exact figure.
