body mass index
A BMI scale will calculate your body mass index in order to determine if you are overweight or obese. The body mass index calculation uses your height to determine if you are underweight, overweight, or obese for your given height. http://pediatrics.about.com/cs/useful tools/l/bl_bmi_calc.htm
Measuring your body mass cannot directly determine your overall body fat. BMI, or Body Mass Index, is designed to determine a healthy weight of a person based on their overall height, age and gender. The reason this index cannot determine your precise body fat is that individuals as the same height with the same BMI may have different body types resulting in the same weight. Overall BMI assists with determining a healthy weight but cannot actually measure you in muscle or fat.
