Ideal weight 183 cm woman

Compute your ideal weight for height in pounds, stones and pounds and also in kilograms. This calculator computes appropriately your ideal or healthy weight based on BMI information[1]. It also shows results using other (outdated) methods. This calculator applies for people of more than 16 years old men or women.

(Age must be greater than 16)

Your healthy or ideal weight:

  • Your ideal weight is between 62.0 and 93.8 kg.
  • The average weight for a person like you is 76.3 kilograms (kg).

Why age and gender matter:

This calculation takes into account your age (25 years) and gender (woman) because body composition changes significantly throughout life. As we age, muscle mass naturally decreases while body fat tends to increase—a process called sarcopenia. Additionally, males typically have higher muscle mass than females, which affects ideal weight ranges.

Calculation details: We've calculated the values above for a 25 years old woman who is 183 cm (1.83 m) tall, using age- and gender-adjusted BMI ranges that account for healthy body composition variations.

Other methods to calculate IBW

According to the formula of Devine (1974)

77.7 kilograms or 171.3 pounds.

Formulas:

  • Man: IBW = 50 + 2.3(h - 60)
  • Woman: IBW = 45.5 + 2.3(h - 60)

Note 1: Valid for age greater than 18 years old and height (h) between 140 and 220 cm
Note 2: height is in inches.

According to the formula of Lorentz (1929)

74.8 kilograms.

Formulas:

  • For men: IBW = (h − 100) − ((h − 150)/4)
  • For women: IBW = (h − 100) − ((h − 150)/2)

Note: height (h) is in cm.

According to the formula of Lorentz (accounting for age)

59.5 kilograms.

Formula:

  • IBW = 50 + (h - 150)/4 + (a - 20)/4

Note: height (h) is in centimeters and age (a) in years.

According to the formula of Peck's (1974)

73.5 kilograms.

Formulas:

  • Man (18 more than years old): IBW = -130.736 + (4.064 * h)
  • Woman (18 more than 18 years old): IBW = -111.621 + (3.636 * h)
  • Boy (18 years old or less): IBW = -59.6035 + (5.2878 * h) - (0.123939 * h2) + (0.00128936 * h3)
  • Girl (18 years old or less): IBW = -77.55796 + (6.93728 * h) - (0.171703 * h2) + (0.001726 * h3)

Note: height (h) is in inches and ranges from 17 to 86 inches (45 to 220 cm)
