Ideal Body Weight Calculator
A target weight range for your height, using three standard clinical formulas side by side.
How to use this number
Ideal body weight formulas were originally built for calculating drug doses, not for setting personal goals. They ignore muscle mass, frame size and age, and they give a single figure where a range is more honest — which is why the BMI-based range above is the more useful output.
If you are well above the range, a realistic first target is a 5–10% reduction from your current weight. That much alone measurably improves blood sugar, blood pressure, triglycerides and liver fat — long before an "ideal" weight is reached.
