Have you ever wondered
"how much should I weigh?", or "am I overweight?", or even "am I
underweight?"? Learning what your ideal weight should be is the first step to better
health and a longer life. We know that what one weighs is important. Even
so, most of us find it difficult to maintain our proper weight.
Are you feeling weighed down, or do you think you may need to lose weight? Find out by
using one of the separate men's/women's weight tables shown below. These weight charts
should only be used as a general guide. They are intended for the majority of the
population only, so there may be exceptions. It is noteworthy however, that these figures
are based on lowest mortality rates, so it is important to have a goal to achieve your
ideal weight.
To Approximate Your Frame Size
Bend forearm upward at a 90 degree angle. Keep fingers straight and turn the inside of
your wrist toward your body. Place thumb and index finger of other hand on the two
prominent bones on either side of the elbow. Measure space between your fingers on a
ruler. (A physician would use a caliper.) Compare with weight tables below listing elbow measurements
for medium-framed men and women. Measurements lower than those listed indicate
small frame. Higher measurements indicate large frame.
