BMI's (Body Mass Index) are not always the best indicator of proper weight but do provide some basic guidelines for most "normal" people. Your BMI is 27.1 and falls on the overweight category of the BMI scale.

BMI Categories: * Underweight = <18.5 * Normal weight = 18.5-24.9 * Overweight = 25-29.9 * Obesity = BMI of 30 or greater http://www.nhlbisupport.com/bmi/

Remember always talk to your doctor before making any weight decisions. Your general indicators of health (blood pressure, cholesterol) are all important considerations when deciding if you are at a healthy weight.
