How would you describe your body? Are you underweight, overweight, at a healthy weight, or obese? If you are unsure, please use the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute's BMI calculator to get an idea. We realize that Body Mass Index is not a perfect indication of what shape you're in, and it is too generalized to be 100% accurate; however, we are relying on you to give your best estimate. There will be an obvious limit to the amount of information we can provide. It's also important to note that two people with the same BMI may have different body compositions and lifestyles. In particular, those with considerable muscle mass often find themselves in the "overweight" or "obese" categories. If you know you're muscular or athletic, choose the option that suits you. For this question, you may select only one answer.

Underweight. I weigh less than what is expected to be healthy OR I have a BMI of under 18.5.
