Help to get to a healthy weight

Check if you’re a healthy weight

One way to check if you’re a healthy weight, is to work out your body mass index. This is known as your BMI. You can use the BMI healthy weight calculator to check your BMI, or check your child’s BMI.

Your BMI result is helpful, but should only be used as a guide.

If you have an eating disorder, the BMI calculator results don’t apply. Get more information and support from BEAT Eating Disorders.
