What Your Result Means

A calculator gives you a range, not a plan. Your best weight also depends on your age, muscle, medical history and how you eat day to day. If you would like a plan built around your result, you can consult Ayesha online or at the Holistic Care clinic in DHA Phase 3.

Ideal Weight Calculator FAQs

A healthy weight depends on your height. For South Asian adults the WHO range is a BMI of 18.5 to 22.9, so at 165 cm that is about 50 to 62 kg. Use the calculator above or the height chart for your own range.

South Asians tend to carry more body fat and have a higher risk of diabetes and heart disease at a lower BMI than other groups. That is why the WHO Asian range stops at 22.9 instead of 24.9.

The BMI range used here is the same for both. Muscle, frame size, age and pregnancy can move your healthy weight up or down, so treat the result as a range, not a single number.
