Question:
200 percent?

If you are 200 percent above your ideal weight, what would your BMI be? My insurance will cover if 200 percent over ideal weight. Thanks for any help    — Susan C. (posted on March 4, 2001)

200% of your ideal weight is simply double your ideal weight. I am 5'3", and my ideal weight is 130. 200% of that weight is 260, and would equal a BMI of 46.16 (my actual original stats were pretty close - 250 lbs., BMI 44.5). - Kate -
