HEIGHT, WEIGHT, BMI
All children benefit from being healthy and physically fit. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) has developed health categories based on weight and height for children of different ages and genders. Your child may be at risk for certain social and health problems if he/she is over- or under-weight.
BMI or Body Mass Index is one screening tool that can be used to determine if a child is overweight, at risk of being overweight, healthy weight, or underweight. The formula for BMI is ((weight (lbs)/(height (inches))2) x 703. BMI results are then plotted on a BMI Chart to determine percentile rank compared to other children of the same age and gender. For example, a BMI percentile of 85 means that 15% of children of the same age and gender have higher BMIs. BMI numbers change as a child grows older and is different between boys and girls.
As you review the results, please remember:
( These results are only for screening purposes. Some children are more muscular or are at different
stages of growth. Check with your health care provider for a full evaluation.
( Please do not put your child on a weight loss/gain diet. Please work with your health care provider
to find the right strategies for your family.
