What is Body Mass Index (BMI)?
Body Mass Index (BMI) is a simple calculation that estimates body fat based on your height and weight. It’s a widely used tool to categorise weight status into underweight, normal weight, overweight, and obese. It is important to note that BMI doesn’t directly measure body fat. It can only provide a general overview of weight-related health risks. Using a body mass index NHS calculator style calculator is easy. Scroll up or down to find our one. If you are overweight, consider hypnotherapy for weight loss. It could just be the effective, long-term solution you need.
Why is BMI Important?
Understanding your BMI is crucial for several reasons:
- Health Risks: A high BMI can unfortunately increase the risk of various health conditions. This includes heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes, and certain types of cancer.
- Weight Management: Monitoring your BMI can help you track your weight management progress and identify areas where you might need to make lifestyle changes.
- Personalized Care: Your BMI can be a starting point for conversations with healthcare professionals. Ask about your overall health and potential weight management strategies.
How to use our body mass index NHS calculator
You can easily calculate your BMI using our online body mass index calculator. Our calculators require your height and weight in either metric or imperial units. For those interested in the maths, the formula used to calculate BMI is: BMI = weight (kg) / height² (m²)
Body mass index NHS calculator categories and health implications
Once you know your BMI, you then can categorize your weight status as follows:
- Underweight: BMI below 18.5
- Normal weight: BMI between 18.5 and 24.9
- Overweight: BMI between 25 and 29.9
- Obese: BMI of 30 or above
It’s essential to remember that BMI is just one indicator of health. It doesn’t account for factors like muscle mass or body composition. People with high muscle mass, such as athletes, may have a high BMI, this despite having low body fat. I advise my hypnotherapy weight loss clients not to dwell too much on numbers, but rather use other ways to monitor progress. This might be noticing clothes fitting better or just feeling better.
The role of hypnotherapy in weight loss
Once you have used our body mass index NHS calculator, it’s time to do something about the results you get and the results you want! So, yes, BMI provides valuable information about your weight status. However achieving and maintaining a healthy weight often requires addressing underlying factors. These will be your habits, emotions, and mindset. Hypnotherapy is a very effective tool to support weight loss by targeting these areas. Forget trying the next fad diet, instead try something that will last long term. This is where hypnotherapy can really help you.
