    Oops! Sorry...

    The two calculators come up with the same BMI for me - but one says normal, and one says underweight. Based on the weight range for my height and weight, both should say normal.

    And as said elsewhere in this discussion, BMI is just one factor of many - I don't think that you can go by this as the sole indicator of weight "status". Certainly having body fat measured by a reputable and trained individual is a better indicator anyway.
