weight chart body fat

I gained a lot of weight with my first. Sometimes you can't help it.

http://www.bmi-calculator.net/body-fat-calculator/body-fat-chart.php What do you think about that? I'd be scared you'd be losing muscle if you lose anymore. How is your diet?

Thanks for the responce Dr Smita, I get a body comp test done once a month. My weight gain has been 2lbs muscle and 6lbs fat (and thats after 5 months). Also all my measurements are staying the same....almost no change. I get chest, waist, hips, bicep and calves done. I maintain a food chart for my nutritionist so i can stay at 30/30/40. The people on the biggest loser show probably burn about as much as me and they are restricted to 1500 calories a day.

So a better question is am I in shape or do i need to convert more areas of fat to muscle? With that said, here is a weight chart that should only be used to give you an idea, so don't take it as gospel.

1 is what you are presently and it is good that you are targeting a BMI less than 25. Check the fat content in your body and see if you have decreased any fat content while gaining protein. I would suggest you to work a diet chart with the help of a dietician and squeeze all the extra calories and do cardio for 30-45 minutes regularly to decrease your weight proportionally. Continue doing other forms for limited time along with cardio. Take care!

Oh Lord! It seems like too much weight for me. I'm petite pre pregnancy weight was 125 which was a healthy weight fot my height. I'm on my first trimester and gain already 5 thre Dr. told me 5lbs on the 1st trimester was fine and she also told me that at the of of pregnancy I will be at least 165 lbs that will be my heaviest ever.

But please remember that a lot of them will give out different answes and won't be exact.

Also the rate at which you are gaining muscle mass might be greater than the rate of loss in body fat. Hence, you should not entirely depend on a weighing scale to assess your progress. You should get your body fat regularly tested along with taking measurements of your chest, waist, hips, arms and thighs. If you are losing inches, it is definitely a good indication. Even if you realize that you are gaining fat, there are certain options you can explore.

According to online BMI calculators which only use your height and weight to deduce body fat, it calculates your numbers at 18.4% which is technically under weight. 18.5-24.9 is optimal weight without any other factors to take into consideration. A scale shouldn't really do any more than that, except it may use some kind of inductive measurement through your skin, but even that is nothing as compared to calipers.

Heart Healthy diet which is a moderate fat diet and a moderate fat diet means = using polyunsaturated (omega 3, corn oil, nuts, etc) fats and monounsaturated (olive oil, canola oil, peanut oil, etc) fats, no saturated fats (high fat snack foods, butter, fat spreads) and no trans fats.

I am a 16 year old male. Since last year i went from 180 to 130. I did this through an unhealthily low calorie diet + lots of cardio. I was still kinda fat though at 130 so for 6 months i got a ton of protein and worked out and i gained some muscle and to this point i havent gained a ton of muscle even while eating/working out properly. I am 145ish now but i am still very fat for my weight . I an 5' 10' by the way.

I disagree with the above. There is a healthy weight range. If you are 5 foot and 4 inches according to the body mass index the healthy weight range is 108 - 145 pounds. If you are between this range then you have absolutely nothing to worry about.

If you want to reduce fat and keep it off, then it will take some time. I won't assurance 5-10 pounds weight loss in a week or two weeks’ time, but I will say you can reasonably reduce 1-2 pounds of body fat a week, and build muscle at the same rate. You can’t put the body weight on overnight instantaneously, and therefore it's not going to magically disappear overnight.

cardio exercises like aerobics help u to reduce weight very fast while yoga tones the body and keeps your body systems fit( though cardio exercises also keep the system strong especially circulation of blood).. so you can do either of the two but you need guidance in the initial levels.. good luck...

Hey, I'm currently at a healthy 13.5% body fat but I'm an athlete so I'm really trying to drop that down to under 10%. I've been doing High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) in between weight lifting days and eating primarily proteins, healthy fats, and a small amount of carbs for breakfast and after excersise. I'm trying to lose as much fat as possible in the next two weeks.

why does the Body mass index not take body frame into account? I have been a weight lifter and have larger muscle mass than a inactive person yet I am lumped into the same chart.

How much weight do you want to lose before school starts? Safe weight loss is 1-2 pounds/week, so the most you should plan on is 10-12 pounds, if you stick with a pretty strict diet and exercise routine, but that's a good start and if you stay with it, after school starts, you can really make progress over time. There are numerous exercises for belly fat, such as crunches, leg lifts, even brisk walking. Try searching YouTube for "how to" videos.

There might be some kind of diet you might be consuming presently which is not giving you the desired body mass. Proteins are a necessity along with carbohydrates, controlled amount of fat and vitamins and minerals. But keep this in mind that some people have higher Basal metabolic rate so this might be the condition with you.

He thinks telling him he is getting fat will get him to lose weight and that is not true and it is horrible thing to say to him. I guess I feel guitly about not feeding him food when he is hungry so I give in. What can I do without feeling guilt??? I am scared of him getting diabetes or heart issues.

If you just started lifting you will gain weight since muscle weighs more than fat! I gained 10 lbs when I started back up! When I was younger I was a body builder, but now I just strength train! To get an idea of where you are, purchase a scale that has more than just weight readings, I have one that does my BMI, my water intake, my body fat content etc. This will keep you on track! I use this weekly on the same day around the same time, it's a ritual!

How do you determine the right weight for your body type? Is there a chart I can use.
