    FAQ

    What is the Ideal Weight for 4 feet 2 Inches Female in kg?

    For 4'2" Female Ideal Weight: 45.5 kg (100.3 lbs) Healthy Weight Range: 29.8 kg - 40.3 kg (65.8 lbs - 88.9 lbs)

    What is Normal/Healthy Weight Range for 4'2" Female?

    Normal/Healthy Weight Range for 4'2" Female is 29.8 kg - 40.3 kg (65.8 lbs - 88.9 lbs).

    How is the ideal weight of 45.5 kg for 4'2" calculated?

    By the Devine formula (1974): 45.5 kg for a woman plus 2.3 kg for every inch above 5 feet. 4'2" is 50 inches, 0 of them above 60, so 45.5 + 2.3 × 0 = 45.5 kg (100.3 lbs). Below 5 feet the surcharge is clamped at zero and the base weight stands.

    Why do the ideal weight and the healthy range give different answers?

    They are two different models. The range 29.8 kg - 40.3 kg is the BMI band 18.5-24.9 applied to 4'2", while the ideal weight 45.5 kg is a single point from the Devine formula and corresponds to a BMI of 28.21. The formula knows nothing about age, frame size or muscle, so its point need not sit in the middle of the range.
