on the left-hand edge and one s weight at the bottom. Draw perpendicular lines from those points. At the point where the lines intersect, read upward along the nearest curve to find the Body Mass Index. Anything above 27.3 for women or 27.8 for men is considered excessive, according to the 1985 National Institutes of Health report on "Health Implications of obesity." If one decides he would like to lower his BMI. he will want to engage in regular, gentle exercise, and eat a full variety of foods that are high in complex carbohydrates and low in fat Gentle exercise, such as walking, bicycling, and moving smoothly to music will help develop one s body’s ability to burn up the excess fat he is already carrying: and eating foods that are low in fat will help protect him from adding more pounds Those wanting more information about the Body Mass Index, or who are concerned about their weight and want information about help available in their area, they should contact The Obesity Foundation, an affiliate organization of the American Society of Bariatric Physicians. 5600 S.
