Check your Waist Circumference
 
Waist measurement, is also another way to measure for future health risks, rather than just BMI alone.

Carrying too much fat around your middle is associated with an increased risk of developing heart disease, diabetes and high cholesterol, which in turn increased the risk of heart attacks and strokes.

A waist circumference greater than 80cm (32”) for woman and 94cm (37”) for men, increases the risk of all the above and puts you in a higher risk category.
The danger area is for women with a waist measurement of more than 88cm (35”) and men with a waist measurement of more than 102cm (40”)
To measure accurately: place a tape around the narrowest part of your waist, breathe out and measure.
Simply draw a horizontal line to correspond with your height and a vertical line to correspond with your waist measurement. The point where these two lines meet shows your waist circumference. This is a good indicator of your overall health.
