Healthy Weight (HW): An estimate of ideal amount you should weigh based any one of many different methods available. No single calculator is capable of determining your exact "ideal," as none can account for your unique fat proportion, bone density, or muscle mass. However, just having an estimated target is better than having no goal at all. As long as you don't go below the safe level of calories per day (1,000-1,200 for women, 1,300-1,500 for men), common sense and a mirror will tell you when you've reached your own unique HW.

Ideal Body Weight Calculation: The formula used in the this page's calculation is based on the Hamwi Method, listed below:

• Men, Medium Frame: 106 pounds for first 5 feet of height, plus 6 pounds for each inch over 5 feet. Add 10% for a large frame and deduct 10% of a small frame.
• Women, Medium Frame: 100 pounds for first 5 feet of height, plus 5 pounds for each inch over 5 feet. Add 10% for a large frame and deduct 10% of a small frame.
