What's 107kg in Stone? BMI and Health Context
107kg converts to 16 stone 12 pounds (16st 12lbs) in UK measurements. However, your BMI at this weight depends entirely on your height—it could range from around 24 (healthy weight) to 35+ (obese). To convert kilograms to stone accurately and understand what your weight means for your health, you need to know your height. Use our free BMI calculator above to enter both your weight and height, and you'll instantly see your personal BMI category according to NHS guidelines. This gives you the full health picture, not just the conversion alone.

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.
107kg BMI at Different Heights
Here are six example BMIs for someone weighing 107kg at different heights, using the metric to imperial weight context:
- At 160cm (5ft 3in): BMI 41.8 — Severely obese (Class III) — significantly above the healthy 18.5–24.9 range
- At 170cm (5ft 7in): BMI 37.0 — Obese (Class II) — above the healthy weight threshold
- At 175cm (5ft 9in): BMI 34.9 — Obese (Class I) — just at the boundary of Class II
- At 180cm (5ft 11in): BMI 32.9 — Obese (Class I) — still in the obese category
- At 185cm (6ft 1in): BMI 31.2 — Obese (Class I)
- At 190cm (6ft 3in): BMI 29.6 — Overweight — just below the 30 threshold for obesity
At taller heights, 107kg may fall into the overweight rather than obese category. Your GP can give personalised health advice based on your individual height and any weight-related health conditions.

Understanding NHS BMI Categories and Limitations
The NHS defines BMI categories as: healthy weight (18.5–24.9), overweight (25–29.9), obese Class I (30–34.9), obese Class II (35–39.9), and severely obese (40+). At 107kg, most adults would fall into the obese range unless they are very tall. However, BMI has important limitations—it doesn't distinguish between muscle and fat, so athletes may have high BMI but low body fat. It also doesn't account for where fat is stored or ethnicity-related health risks. For South Asian, Chinese, Black African, or Caribbean adults, lower BMI thresholds apply.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about BMI, weight loss medications, and our free UK tools.
Is 107kg overweight or obese?
At 107kg, your category depends on height. At average adult heights (170–180cm), 107kg typically falls into the obese range (BMI 30–35). At taller heights (190cm+), it may be overweight (BMI 25–29.9). Use our BMI calculator above with your exact height to see your personal category.
What does 107kg weigh in stone and pounds?
107kg equals 16 stone and 12 pounds (16st 12lbs) exactly. To convert kilograms to stone, divide by 6.35. For other weight conversions between kg, stone, and lbs, use our free weight converter on this page.
How much weight would I need to lose to reach a healthy BMI from 107kg?
This depends on your height. At 175cm, a healthy BMI (18.5–24.9) requires losing roughly 25–35kg (bringing you to 72–82kg). Your GP or a weight management service can give you a personalised target based on your specific circumstances.
Can I get help losing weight if I weigh 107kg?
Yes. The NHS offers weight management support through your GP, including dietitian services, behavioural support, and in some cases prescription weight loss treatment (if you meet eligibility criteria). Private options including online prescribing are also available. Your GP can discuss what's appropriate for you.
Does 107kg mean I definitely have health problems?
Not necessarily, but being overweight or obese at this level does increase health risks. Risks vary by height, fitness level, family history, and whether you have conditions like high blood pressure or type 2 diabetes. Your GP can assess your individual risk and recommend next steps. ```
