What is the standard weight?

I think total height in cms minus 100 should be the maximum weight of the person in Kg

It's same for both....because, normally men have height than women.

Actually, there is a formula to calculate correct weight/height ratio. I will post it later.
What I gave was a simple approximate calculation.

that means if i am 175 tall then my standard weigh should be 75 Kgs. :)

Hmmm looks formula is applicable to me. :)

This works better this way
Height in inches X 1 kg for men and 800 gm for women.
Like I am 73 inches and weight 74kg.

I am 70 inches height and my weight should be 70 kg. That means I am over weight.I heard weight some times depends on the weight of bone also.

Yes you can have some percentage for that also. Like 5% + or - is standard.

I really don't know about formula.. I am 71 Kgs with height 5"8'.. I guess I need to reduce some weight...

Anand, actually I spend some time to find this formula. Also, I was talking about Body mass index yesterday, that I regularly read in magazines. It is the standard formula to know whether we are having appropriate weight, accepted by all standards.
But later only I found that, we should input value according to pounds :dry:
Actually I don't know to convert kgs to pounds. Do you know? :P :laugh: :laugh:

About 440 gms is =pound that is a very simple thing.
