Estimate Ideal Weight
Ideal-weight formulas are reference estimates and can vary by method. Use the result as a guide rather than a diagnosis.
Formula: Devine (men) = 50 + 2.3 Γ inches over 5 ft; Devine (women) = 45.5 + 2.3 Γ inches over 5 ft
Use the same units and measurement method expected by the calculator. Results from body measurements, activity levels, or health formulas are estimates and can vary when the underlying inputs or method changes.
Re-enter the same values and compare the result with the stated formula. Consistent units and settings should produce the same estimate.
