weight

1938479 tn?1325705620 If Arnold Schwarzenegger was to use a BMI (weight vs height) chart while bodybuilding, it would have classified him as obese. Another way to look at fat versus muscles is that a cubic inch of muscle will weigh more than a cubic inch of fat. Muscle is about 18 percent more dense than fat. 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.
Avatar f tn Our daughter's height has been slowly dropping on her growth chart. Over the period of 2 years, she has gone from 95% down to 10%. The progression has been this: Birth: 95% 3 months: 50% 6 months: 45% 12 months: 25% 20 months: 15% 2 years: 10% She had serious health issues when born (two heart defects, heart failure, failure to thrive with weight) but these have all been resolved for over a year.
Avatar n tn A healthy and regular meal is vital to gain or lose weight. Consuming more calories than you burn will help you in gaining weight. Try to gain weight in a healthy way. Eat lots of fruits and vegetables. Avoid foods like cookies, chips, aerated drinks .You can also do aerobic exercises or exercises which will help you gain muscle mass. The added muscle will increase your metabolism which in turn will lead to increased consumption of calories per day to maintain that weight.
Avatar n tn Short of there being any food tolerance issues - you should probably follow food guidelines as laid out by the USDA in the USA or the Canada Food Guide (in Canada!) to ensure you eat a relatively well rounded and healthy diet. http:// fnic.nal.usda.gov/nal_display/index.php?
Avatar f tn I'm 19 years old, im 5'4 and I weight 151lb and my goal is to lose 30lb... my Dr. said that as long as I was between 110 and 130 I was good. And correct if I'm wrong but weight goes by hight.... So I really think that's a good goal... when are you planing to starting and how do you plan to lose those 15 lbs???
Avatar n tn As was suggested, you need to use the BOM chart for your weight and size. Being to small is not good for anyone. You are young, you are going to want to have a family and being small will not be productive to that. Get out live a little. Mind the charts for age and grow healthy.
Avatar f tn There is a healthy weight range you can look up on web sites like the WebMD, the CDC's section on health, the National Institutes of Health (NIH), etc. The better charts will take into account your height, build, and age. BMI is also good, but allows for a relatively wide range of healthy weights. I'm 5'9", 131 lbs., and still (barely) within the healthy range in terms of BMI. Good luck identifying a healthy range for yourself.
1522322 tn?1291215029 I have heard that people who are a little overweight have a longer life expectancy than people at an average or "healthy" weight. Is this true? What is considered a healthy weight range for a 5'4" woman?
1626068 tn?1303756562 What you say is absolutely true. It is important to remember that healthy weight doesn't necessarily mean that you have good health. Many skinny top models have very high percentage of body fat (which BMI does not take into consideration) and low BMI, and we know this is not healthy. If you get an athlete, for example, it is quite possible that he will be considered "overweight" using the BMI concept, but we know he is not! And his body fat is likely to be very low!

Avatar m tn I have 100 killo gram weight. i am unable to reduce the weight. Could you please suggest any exersise and diet to reduce the weight.
Avatar n tn I wouldn't listen to the weight chart thing, I'm nearly 35 weeks amd ever since a set up this app it has been telling me av been gaining too much weight, av never worried as think it is probably better to be gaining to much than not enough.
Avatar f tn Its obviously very healthy for you and would help you lose weight. My mother went on a fast ats lost a decent amount of weight she only drank water and used little cubes of beef and chicken stock for flavor. I believe if you keep your belly full with water you won't be hungry. Good luck dearest!
Avatar f tn My doctor told me I shouldnt try getting/using one as there is no say as to what is exactly in them and there not health canada approved? Ive seen plenty of moms using them. Anyone else get a diffetent opinion from a doctor?
Avatar m tn s not a good idea to start with heavy weight right on. So when you start you should be doing 2X12 or 15 with light weight then gradually increase weight then go for 3X12 and when you feel comfortable you can go for mass building which is 2X6 or 7 with heavy weights. To know what is the appropriate weight you have to be barely able to lift the 6th or 7th repetition. If you have no problem doing all the 7 repetitions then it's time to add weight.

Avatar m tn This in turn can lead to over-production of fat which can be harmful for your health. Foods with the highest fructose content are peaches, prunes, pears, cherries, plums, apples and apple cider, grapes and dates. These fruits are hardest to digest and can cause fructose intolerance. Excessive fructose can lead to leptin resistance, which could cause weight gain if combined with a high fat and calorie diet. High levels of fructose can also raise blood pressure.

Avatar n tn Yes, everyone's temperature varies from person to person. When they say your temp should be 98.8 or .7, that is an average. I normally run 97.6, so if my temp actually reads 99 or more, I am sick, sick, sick. My clinic knows this about me and it's in my chart. Last time I wasn't feeling well and went to clinic, my temp was 99.2 and the nurse said, Oh my gosh, you are sick! Is this the first time you became aware of your temp running a little low?
676912 tn?1332812551 s always been a monster, he was never below 90% for height and always above 50% for weight, mostly above 95% and 75% for height/weight. Aubryana is right now the same size Elijah was at 4 months and she's almost 9 months. Do I just have a little baby girl, or is she gonna start growing more as she gets older? I'm so used to Mr Giant.
Avatar f tn 1800 calories a day is far under what you are supposed to be eating. In order to find out how many calories a day you should be eating, try doing this simple equation: BMR = 655 + (4.7 x your height in inches)+ (4.35 x your weight in lbs) – (4.7 x your age in years). Then after you get that number, you will multiply it by another number depending on how much/how often you exercise. Light exercise: AMR will equal BMR x 1.375, Moderate exercise: AMR will equal BMR x 1.
Avatar f tn The chart on this website says I am above the normal weight is that a bad thing? I was underweight before getting pregnant.
Avatar f tn She had serious health issues when born (two heart defects, heart failure, failure to thrive with weight, but these have all been resolved for over a year. She appears in good health, and she's gaining weight (her weight is the one thing that has been climbing, she is 25 months now and 24.5 lbs, so around 40% for weight. She is continuing to grow in height, but she's dropping all the time on the chart. Her doctors have never really mentioned anything about it.
