Queries About Fat Estimation

General
The drolf is my guardian, the one that pushes me to strive further than what I can achieve
I had some questions from my peeps and friends about how I can estimate a character's weight and height. I usually work with metric units but I do not know whether this formula really works with IMPERIAL UNITS.
Metric = Metre, Kilograms
Imperial = Feet, Pounds
If those of you fatfurs who joined some of the chub/gainer forums, you would realise the BMI thumbnail or calculator. BMI shows how much Body Mass one person has...
In metric (Metres and Kilograms),
BMI = Weight/(Height x Height)
Acceptable (Normal): Below 25
Overweight (Husky/Chubby): 25.1 ~ 30
Severely Overweight (Fat): 30.1 ~ 38
Obese: 38.1 ~ 42
SuperChub: 42.1 and above
Just work backwards with your character's height and you can find how fat your character is. Don't worry about the formula. There are some calculators in the InterWebz, just google it. This is how I gauge how fat a character is. I hope this proved useful to those drawing fat/chub/weight gain etc.

The one I regard as the BMI or the Imperial/Metric Units?
