BMI Body Mass Index Calculator

We live in an age where we have lesser and lesser time for ourselves, meaning that we can no longer indulge ourselves in activities that could contribute to a healthier lifestyle, such as leisure walking, or physical exercises. If you are limited by your budget and cannot afford a gym membership or an appointment with a certified nutritionist, you can get a general idea about your health status (a superficial one though) by calculating your BMI (Body Mass Index). BMI Body Mass Index Calculator is a lightweight tool that, as you can guess from the name, allows you to calculate your body mass index and asses whether or not you are under or overweight.

The BMI is a value derived from correlating your height and weight. More precisely, it is the result of dividing your body mass by the square of your height and is expressed in kg/m².  Usually, calculators come with a graph that helps you interpret the value that you've got, thus placing you in one of three situations: you are either underweight, normal, or overweight.

BMI Body Mass Index Calculator allows you to calculate your BMI regardless if you are familiar with the imperial or metric system, meaning it can be used all over the world. Once you input your height and weight values, all you have to do is click "Compute BMI" and observe your result.  One thing worth noting is that the BMI value can be misleading because the BMI is derived from a ratio between your height and weight.  This means that it does not take into account the possibility that your extra weight might be derived from extra muscle mass (fitness aficionados be aware).

BMI Body Mass Index Calculator doesn't do anything extraordinary, but the simple interface and the fact that it can use both metric and imperial systems, it is a great tool for those trying to pay attention to their weight.
