BMI and the weight height tables

BMI is used with the weight-height tables (of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company) to come up with the approximate estimates of desirable ranges of weight. The tables ascribe an array of weights for a particular height. You can check the table for your desirable BMI. For example, a woman of 5 ft, 3 in (1.6 m) height has a desirable range of 117 and 154 lb (53 to 70 kg) – an average of 62 kg (137 lb). A man who is 5 ft, 9 in (1.8 m) has a desirable weight range between 146 and 183 lb (66 to 83 kg) – an average of 165 lb (75 kg).

Following is the BMI Table
