Body Mass Index Children Europe

This module calculates Body Mass Index for children up to 18 and classifies the result according to the guidelines accepted by most European countries.

Instructions:
1. Enter values for gender, age, height and weight.
2. The result is interpreted within three categories: Normal weight, Overweight and Obesity.

BMI

17.8

Height

lbs

Weight

ft' in''

4'11"

Age

Yrs

Background:

The European norms are based on calculating the percentiles at each age, that would correspond to BMI 25 and BMI 30 at age 18. A reference material from several countries is used - also from non-European countries.

Important: The BMI guidelines based on this source are not used to define "underweight" as BMI is a very poor predictor for this in children. Therefore, the term "Normal weight" should be interpreted as "Not overweight".

Hi! I have been suffering from AN this past year but I am recovering since july. This week I turn 14 and I have 175cm. I was always "underweight' even at my pre ed weight bc that is how I am. I remember doing a bmi test with dad for fun when I was 11-12 and I had a bmi 16.3. My highest weight was 49.7 kg. Now I eat 3000 calories and I gain very slow. A month ago I had 46kg but now I have 46.8-46.9. Is that normal to eat such a big aount of food? I used to eat about like this, I do not remember well... Any recommandations ?
