BMI is the abbreviation for body mass index. Body mass index is the measure of fats in the body in simplest words. Body mass index can be calculated by weight over height squared or BMI = weight/ height². A body with high BMI means high amount of fats in the body while lower BMI indicates lower amount of fats in the body. A person's weight is determined by the fats in the body. High amount of fats in the body means a person is likely to be obese. The normal or healthy BMi is around 18.5 – 24.9.
