BMI
Your BMI is below 20. You may be perfectly healthy at this BMI, but if you have lost weight recently we suggest you visit your general practitioner for a check-up.

Congratulations your weight is in the ideal range. You do not need to consider a weight loss procedure.

You are overweight but not to a degree which is likely to lead to major medical problems. You may wish to consider an appointment with our Dietitian or consider use of the Orbera Intra Gastric Balloon.

We suggest a consultation to discuss your options.

You are significantly overweight and may be a candidate for a weight loss procedure, particularly if you have other problems such as diabetes and hypertension. Options include Orbera Intra-Gastric Balloon and LapBand.

We suggest a consultation to discuss your options

Your weight is now at a potentially dangerous level and you are at high risk of developing major conditions such as Type 2 Diabetes, Hypertension, Stroke, Heart Attack and some cancers. Options include Lapband, Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy and Laparoscopic Gastric Bypass.

We suggest a consultation to discuss your options.

Body Mass Indicator

Body Mass Index (BMI) is the measure of body fat based on height and weight that applies to both adult men and women.

BMI does not differentiate between body fat and muscle mass. Therefore, body builders and people who have a lot of muscle bulk will have a high BMI but are not overweight or obese.

Overweight 25 - 29.9

Overweight is defined as a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 25 to 29.9. Overweight refers to increased body weight in relation to height.

Obese 30+

Obesity is defined as a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or higher and extreme obesity is a BMI of 40 or more. Extreme obesity is often referred to as Morbid Obesity due to the associated health risks.
