25 to 29.9 is considered overweight
To determine the body mass index (BMI) category, we need to know the person's weight and height. The formula to calculate BMI is weight (in kilograms) divided by height (in meters) squared.
Here are the standard BMI categories:
- Underweight: BMI < 18.5
- Normal weight: 18.5 ≤ BMI < 25
- Overweight: 25 ≤ BMI < 30
- Obesity: BMI ≥ 30
In your question, you're asking about the range where a person is considered overweight but not obese. According to the categories mentioned above, an individual is considered overweight when their BMI is between 25 and 30.
To determine if someone is in this range, you need to know their weight and height. Once you have these values, divide the weight in kilograms by the height in meters squared. If the result falls between 25 and 30, then the person would be classified as overweight but not yet obese.
