What Is Your BMI at 10.7 Stone?
10.7 stone is equivalent to 149.8 pounds or approximately 68 kg. However, your BMI depends entirely on your height — the same weight can result in very different BMI values depending on how tall you are. This guide shows you what BMI you'd have at 10.7 stone across common UK heights, and which NHS health categories each falls into. Use our free BMI calculator above to find your exact BMI instantly by entering your height.

What Is BMI and Why Does It Matter?
Body Mass Index (BMI) is the most widely used screening tool for assessing whether your weight falls within a healthy range. Used by the NHS, GPs, and weight management services across the UK, BMI provides a quick snapshot of your weight relative to your height. The formula is simple: your weight in kilograms divided by your height in metres squared (kg/m²).
While BMI isn't a perfect measure — it doesn't account for muscle mass, bone density, or fat distribution — it remains the standard first step in identifying potential weight-related health risks including type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure, and certain cancers.
The NHS also recommends adjusted thresholds for people of South Asian, Chinese, or Black African heritage — a BMI of 23 or above is classified as overweight, and 27.5 as obese. Our calculator includes this adjustment as a one-click toggle.
BMI at 10.7 Stone for Different Heights
At 10.7 stone (149.8 lbs or 68 kg), your BMI varies significantly by height. Here are example BMI values across typical UK adult heights:
- 5ft 2in (157 cm): BMI 27.6 — Overweight (NHS category)
- 5ft 4in (163 cm): BMI 25.6 — Overweight (just above healthy range)
- 5ft 6in (168 cm): BMI 23.9 — Healthy weight (NHS category)
- 5ft 8in (173 cm): BMI 22.1 — Healthy weight
- 5ft 10in (178 cm): BMI 20.5 — Healthy weight
- 6ft 0in (183 cm): BMI 19.1 — Healthy weight
These examples show how height dramatically affects BMI interpretation. To calculate your exact BMI for this weight, use the BMI calculator on this page and enter your specific height.

NHS BMI Categories and What They Mean
The NHS categorises BMI as follows: Underweight (below 18.5), Healthy weight (18.5–24.9), Overweight (25.0–29.9), and Obese (30.0 and above). At 10.7 stone, whether you fall into the healthy weight or overweight category depends entirely on your height — a person 5ft 2in tall would be overweight at this weight, whilst someone 5ft 8in or taller would be in the healthy range. It's important to note that BMI has limitations: it doesn't distinguish between muscle and fat, and it doesn't account for where fat is stored. Your GP can provide personalised health advice based on your individual circumstances.
