Learn More »Your waist circumference is an important number to know, especially if you're living with a chronic health issue such as heart disease or have a risk factor for diabetes, such as family history. In fact, research shows waist circumference may be as important as body mass index (BMI)—the ratio of weight to height that can indicate obesity—for predicting disease risk and overall health status. This is because BMI does not account for how fat is distributed in the body. In contrast, a large waist circumference indicates an accumulation of fat in the intra-abdominal region—and fat in this area can impact internal organs and is more metabolically active than fat in other areas of the body. A person with a larger waist-to-hip ratio faces an increased risk for developing type 2 diabetes, regardless of whether or not they are overweight.

Learn More »To find your BMI, divide your weight in pounds by your height in inches; multiply the result by 703 to convert from lbs/inches2 to kg/m2. When used alone, a BMI measurement is not especially accurate at predicting health and heart disease risk. Used in conjunction with waist circumference, it provides a clearer picture. Body Mass Index The most commonly used measure to correlate weight and height is the body mass index (BMI). It uses weight and height to try and estimate body fat. The resulting number is then used to categorize people as underweight, normal weight, overweight, obese, or morbidly obese. BMI is not perfect, however, and does not account for other factors that determine body composition like age, muscle mass, or sex. BMI calculations may, for example, overestimate body fat in athletes or in older people. Additionally, BMI can also stigmatize and shame people who do not meet what is considered an ideal weight or body shape.
