Doctor's Note - Written by Dr Muhammad Usman, MBBS
220 pounds is 99.79 kg - just under 100 kg. At 5ft 6in the BMI is 35.4, Class 2 obese. At 6ft 0in the BMI drops to 29.8, overweight - just below the obese threshold. At 6ft 2in the BMI is 28.2, overweight. This is a weight where the clinical approach varies considerably by height. For shorter patients the BMI places them clearly in the obese category, and the full range of NHS/WHO weight management options is appropriate. For patients of 6ft 0in or above, the weight is in the overweight range, and my approach would focus more on trends and metabolic markers than on active referral.
