More accurate is Body Fat %....determine your body fat %, then how much of that % is above the normal range, then convert the % of Body fat to pounds and that would be the amount of weight you need to loose.....

According to BMI's, etc, I am still considered overweight based on my Height ans weight....BUT according to the Total Body Analysis, my Body Fat% is withing the "FIT" Range, bordering on "Athletic"

BMI Charts say I need to loose another 10 lbs....Body Fat % says there is not 10lbs available....other than loosing muscle mass, and that would be an extremely unhealthy process......

Many people on this website complain about loosing that last 10 lbs, etc...they should determine if that last 10 lbs is really excess fat or not....

Great job! Why the frowny face? How many people do you know, personally, who have lost over 1/5 of their body weight?? You're doing great! Keep going!

Thank you for that info!

I know how to get my BMI, but is there a calculator for the rest? Figuring those things out tends to twist my mind in knots.

Im always amazed at the BMI results and what is considered over weight, obese, and morbidly obese.

At work we had a health fair and every person who went came back with a BMI saying they are overweight....and some obese as well! But looking at them, that is a description I would consider.

If there is no calculator that you know of, can you please send the mathematical formula to follow?

Thank you very much! I love accuracy!

18% is nothing to sneeze at!!! Good job! And it WILL be more.

It's so fun to see the weight go down and the percentage lost go UP!

Keep it up :)

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
