    A stone is 14lbs, or around 6kg (2.2lbs in a kg so it's more like 6.3kg)

    I wouldnt pay too much attention to those charts. there only a rough guide. if your overweight it could always be muscle which is heavier than fat. if you really wanna know you should see your doctor or pharmasist who will weigh you and take a look at you and will be able to tell you wether you should loose/ put on weight

    Good advice at the end of the day your doctor will tell you whether or not your are under/over weight and what you should do.

    Have to agree there. According to the chart at the top of the page i'm only 1 lb underweight, whereas when i went to the docs i got told i'm about 8 lb underweight. So like char_baby said just get down your docs and they'll tell you :)
