The 3D body visualizer weight loss view draws 2 figures of one height: a current weight and a goal weight. The view opens on a female figure 170 cm (5 ft 7 in) tall at 85 kg (187 lb), with a goal of 72 kg (159 lb). The goal is a light outline over the current figure, and a table lists the change in each number.
How the 3D body visualizer weight loss view works
The 3D body visualizer weight loss view works by fitting the same model at 2 weights. Now is the solid figure. Goal is the outline. The Side by side button stands the 2 figures next to each other.
Each figure is sized to its own weight. The tool divides the weight by a body density and gives the figure that volume, then reads the bust, waist and hips off the figure the way a tape would.
| Number | Now | Goal | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Weight | 85 kg (187 lb) | 72 kg (159 lb) | −13 kg (−28.7 lb) |
| BMI | 29.4 | 24.9 | −4.5 |
| Bust | 102.7 cm | 94.9 cm | −7.8 cm |
| Waist | 96.1 cm | 83.0 cm | −13.1 cm |
| Hips | 115.1 cm | 106.3 cm | −8.8 cm |
| Waist to height | 0.57 | 0.49 | −0.08 |
A BMI of 29.4 is in the CDC's overweight category, and 24.9 is in the healthy weight category. NICE classes a waist to height ratio of 0.5 to 0.59 as increased central adiposity and 0.4 to 0.49 as healthy central adiposity.
The 2 figures are the model's typical bodies at 2 weights. The figures do not predict how one person's body will change, and two people with the same numbers can carry their weight differently. For your own health, a doctor or nurse can assess you in person.
3D body visualizer weight loss formula
The 3D body visualizer weight loss view uses 2 formulas for the change between the figures.
| Formula | For the opening figures |
|---|---|
| Change in BMI = weight change in kg ÷ height in m, squared | 13 ÷ (1.70 × 1.70) = 4.5 |
| Share of body weight = weight change ÷ current weight | 13 ÷ 85 = 15.3 percent |
The change in BMI depends on height. The same 13 kg is 4.5 BMI points at 170 cm and 4.0 points at 180 cm.
3D body visualizer weight loss conversion chart
The 3D body visualizer weight loss view shows a weight change in kilograms or in pounds. One kilogram is 2.2046 pounds.
| Weight change | In pounds | BMI points at 170 cm |
|---|---|---|
| 1 kg | 2.2 lb | 0.3 |
| 2 kg | 4.4 lb | 0.7 |
| 5 kg | 11.0 lb | 1.7 |
| 10 kg | 22.0 lb | 3.5 |
| 13 kg | 28.7 lb | 4.5 |
| 15 kg | 33.1 lb | 5.2 |
| 20 kg | 44.1 lb | 6.9 |
For the steps between 2 weights, line up one height at five weights. To set 2 different people against each other, put two bodies side by side. The BMI visualizer draws one height at every BMI category.
