    FAQ

    What is the Ideal Weight for 166 cm Female in kg?

    For 166 cm Female Ideal Weight: 57.8 kg Healthy Weight Range: 51 kg - 68.9 kg

    What is Normal/Healthy Weight Range for 166 cm Female?

    Normal/Healthy Weight Range for 166 cm Female is 51 kg - 68.9 kg.

    How is the ideal weight of 57.8 kg for 166 cm calculated?

    By the Devine formula (1974): it starts from 45.5 kg for a woman and adds 2.3 kg for every inch above 5 feet. 166 cm is 65.35 inches, 5.35 of them above the 60-inch mark, which gives 57.8 kg. Below 5 feet the surcharge is 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 51 kg - 68.9 kg is the BMI band 18.5-24.9 applied to 166 cm, while the ideal weight 57.8 kg is a single point from the Devine formula and corresponds to a BMI of 20.98. The formula knows nothing about age, frame size or muscle, so its point need not sit in the middle of the range.
