Finding your Ideal Weight isn't as simple as feeding your measurements such as height,weight, age, and gender into a formula and getting your ideal weight.
Your body is unique and so is your ideal weight. It is affected by many factors such Fat percentage, lean tissues, structure, bone density as well social and mental implications.
There are several different methods of estimating your Ideal Weight and size or to determine your weight/size is in the normal range or not. Here are some of the most commonly used techniques :
