BMI calculator



BmiCalc is a Phone Application for Symbian^1 phones such as N97, Nokia 5800 Express Music etc.

Use this calculator to find your Body mass index (BMI). BMI is the system widely used by doctors for checking your healthy weight range. You can find your BMI if you know your weight and height.

Operation
Tap the height or weight values to change, to change the units select Options / Weight or Options /Height.

Ranges
• BMI less than 18.5. Underweight.
• BMI 18.5-25 Ideal
• BMI 25-30 Overweight
• BMI 30-40 Obese - should lose weight
• BMI greater than 40 Very obese, lose weight now.

Note:
A BMI measurement is not as accurate if you're an athlete or very muscular (muscle weighs more than fat), as this can push you into a higher BMI category even if you have a healthy level of body fat.
BMI is not accurate for women who are pregnant or breastfeeding, or people who are frail.
BMI is not accurate for children.
