Their bmi obesity is defined as being at least 100 lbs over that persons ideal weight for age and height.
Obesity is a definition calculated from your BMI (Body-Mass Index). The BMI is calculated by dividing your weight (in kilograms) by the square of your height (in meters).
Someone is obese if their BMI is over 30 kg/(m squared).
There is a measure called body mass index that tells you what class you fit in. It is your height divided by your weight squared.
Another test is measuring the chest and stomach. If the stomach is over 41" at the umbilicus, then there is another predictor. Calculate BMI.
