How to weight for proper BMI

Danny said:

I have seen tables on the recommended BMI for a certain
height. My question is, are those weights what you should
weight with or without cloths? I have been loosing weight
with diet changes. I weighted 190.5 yesterday. Without
cloths that figure dropped to 182.5.

What is the right number to go by?

Without clothes.

Without clothing is most appropriate although less practical
to obtain outside of your own home.

The BMI (body mass index) is a rough calculation based on
your height and weight, so the BMI relative to height is
irrelevant. It's number that stands alone as a rough guide
to a person's degree of obesity. It's not a perfect
determination, but it is fairly accurate in most
circumstances.
