No. You are in the healthy range from 19-25. However, BMI is not a great tool and is designed for adults who do little exercise. It is more important to think about healthty eating and getting adequate excerise that worrying about BMI, especially in children and younger teenagers where it doesn't really work.

How much weight do you have to lose if your bmi is 40.2 and you want your bmi to get down to 28.0?

To determine how much weight you need to lose to achieve a BMI of 28.0, you first need to know your height. BMI is calculated using the formula: BMI = weight (kg) / (height (m))^2. Once you have your height, you can rearrange the formula to find the target weight for a BMI of 28.0, then subtract your current weight (calculated from your BMI of 40.2) to find the weight loss required.
