Hi. Welcome To HealthcareMagic

85 inches means approximately 7 feet. It is right height? And the ideal body weight varies by gender. What is your gender?

Then only I can calculate your ideal weight for your age

Hi. Welcome To HealthcareMagic


Your BMI body Mass Index ~27. BMI more than 25 is over weigh. Your recommended weight is 58 -77 kgs.So you are over weight.

You need to loose weight.
Do two things 1. Exercise
2. Low fat diet , low calorie diet.

It is better if you consult one of our Dietitian who will help with your diet part.
