Ideal Weight Calculator

Healthy weight range for your height.

About this calculator

This gives the weight range matching a BMI of 18.5 to 22.9 (Asian recommendation) and 24.9 (global WHO limit), plus the Devine formula for reference. It is a guide, not a target for everyone.

Results are for information only and are not a diagnosis. Consult a doctor for medical advice.

Frequently asked questions

Is there one ideal weight?

No. A healthy range applies, and muscle, age and frame all matter.

Why use an Asian range?

Asians develop diabetes and heart disease at lower BMI, so risk begins from about 23.
