  • 12. Chapter II: LITERATURE REVIEW Body weight alone is not a very sensitive indicator for defining obesity (Atkinson, 1993). Factors such as age, sex, height, lean muscle mass and body fat percentage are all unaccounted for when using weight alone to measure healthy body weight on an individual level. Thus, weight alone should be avoided as a standard for assessing a persons relative risk for overweight and obesity. Ideal body weight is an unscientific measure, and can provide only an estimate of appropriate weight. A simple way to calculate ideal body weight for women is as follows: 100 lbs for the first 60 in (5 ft) + 5 lbs for every additional inch (Davis & Sherer, 1994, p.292).
