Scale numbers for kilos are unclear and sadly don’t really show body changes. Without tracking measurements you won’t know if your diet really works or not, won’t know if it’s worth sticking to or just wasting time.
Top tips to get the most from measurements..
- Weigh yourself early in the morning before drinking water or eating for the most accurate weight
- When taking measurements or weighing, make sure to check the result at least twice
- If you see body measurements improving but no weight loss don’t be upset. This is good news. It means you lost fat and gained muscle instead
- Weigh and measure yourself at least once a week
- Use the same scale to avoid differences in weight readings
How to calculate ideal weight
You can use the calculator and calculate the body mass index using the famous formula which is BMI = weight in kilograms / height in meters × height in meters. There are normal weights or normal BMI ranges that show the weight a person should reach, which are:
- If the index shows 18.5, it means the person is underweight.
- If the index falls between 18.5 and 24.9, it means the weight is normal.
- If the index is between 25 and 29.9, it means overweight.
- If the BMI is over 30, it means the person is obese.
