So I've been calculating what I'm supposed to weigh, ideally. The BMI isn't very accurate so I've been using Tannhauser's Formula instead.
For Caucasians:
Ideal Body Weight (in kilograms) = height (in centimeters) - 100
For Filipinos
Ideal Body Weight (in kilograms) = height (in centimeters) - 100 - [0.10 x ( height (in centimeters) - 100 )]
I'm still a bit overweight, given this method. I hope I'll be able to diet and exercise this christmas season.
