Weight = 12 stone
Height = 5 foot 3 inches.

5 foot 3 inches = 1.575m

Weight = 12 stone = 168lbs = 76.2043kg

So weight = 76.2043 kg
Height = 1.6m2

BMI = W / H^2 = 76.2043 / (1.6)^2 = 76.2 / 2.56 = 29.77

Its around 30

BMI=


weight in kilograms/(height x height in m)

29.69

SIMPLE
=]

for her do her (lbs x 704.7) divided by 3969. This doesn't work for everyone as the number changes acording to height:
5'0" = 3600
5'1" = 3721
5'2" = 3844
5'3" = 3969
5'4" = 4096
5'5" = 4225
5'6" = 4356
5'7" = 4489
5'8" = 4624
5'9" = 4761
5'10" = 4900
5'11" = 5041
that menas her bmi is 29.8 which is overweight

29.5
