BMI - What Is It and Is Mine Too High?

"Although the BMI ranges shown in the table are not exact ranges of healthy and unhealthy weight, they are useful guidelines. A BMI of 25 to 29.9 indicates a person is overweight. A person with a BMI of 30 or higher is considered obese." - Source: National Institute of Health. Click here for full article, "Active at Any Size."
