Obesity is measured by the Body Mass Index(BMI) it is the ratio of Body weight in kilograms to the height measured in Kilometers squared(Kg/m^2)

In FPS it is measured by the ratio of weight in pounds to height in inches squared*703(ft/inch^2)*703 let your weight is 70 kg and height 1.65 meter then

BMI=70/(1.65*1.65)=25.71

so you are slightly overweight.

According to the chart lf BMI

is between 18.5 to 24.9 then you are normal,

between 25 to 29.9 you can consider yourself over weight though it is also obesity in some way or other.

If BMI is 30 your Obese.

BMI 40 means extreme obesity
