HOW TO READ YOUR RESULTS

A range, not a single
“perfect” weight.

The reference range uses Malaysia’s adult BMI classification: normal BMI is 18.5–22.9. If your BMI is above this range, the calculator shows the difference to its upper reference point (BMI 22.9). This is a mathematical reference for discussion, not a personal prescription.

For people who need to lose weight, an initial 5–10% reduction over about 6 months is a common goal to discuss. Smaller goals may be appropriate if you are close to the range. Longer-term targets and timing are individual.

Clinical referencesMOH Malaysia · Management of Obesity, 2nd edition (2023) ↗NIDDK · Setting realistic weight-loss goals ↗NIDDK · Medication assessment ↗

Clinical references support BMI screening and goal-setting, not DFMC package outcomes or the package comparison rule.

METABOLIC HEALTH

The number on the scale
is only part of the story.

Managing excess weight can offer benefits that go far beyond appearance. We look at your health as a whole.

BLOOD PRESSURE

Ease the strain.
Support your heart health.

For people with excess weight, weight loss can help lower blood pressure. Regular readings help your doctor assess your response and adjust treatment when needed.

Track changes over time, beyond a single reading.

Benefits vary from person to person. Weight management complements your existing treatment. Do not stop or change medication without your doctor's advice. Read the health reference ↗

THE SCIENCE BEHIND CHANGE

Changes in weight.
An impact on health.

Explore what clinical research has found about weight loss. Every figure needs context: the intervention, the participants and the length of the study.

UNDERSTANDING WEIGHT PERCENTAGES
5–10%

Modest changes.
Meaningful progress.

In an analysis of Look AHEAD participants with type 2 diabetes and overweight or obesity, losing 5% to less than 10% of body weight at one year was associated with improvements in blood sugar, blood pressure, triglycerides and HDL cholesterol.

This was an observational analysis within the trial. It shows an association, not a guarantee of the same effect for every individual.

Wing et al. · Diabetes Care, 2011 ↗
01 / DIABETES PREVENTIONRCT · 2002
58%

Lower relative risk
of type 2 diabetes.

In the DPP, an intensive lifestyle programme reduced diabetes incidence by 58% compared with placebo over an average of 2.8 years, among high-risk adults who did not yet have diabetes.

Understand the study +

The study enrolled 3,234 participants in total. The programme targeted at least 7% weight loss and at least 150 minutes of physical activity each week. Incidence was 4.8 versus 11.0 cases per 100 person-years. The 58% figure is a relative reduction, not a reduction of 58 percentage points.

Knowler et al. · NEJM ↗
02 / BLOOD PRESSUREMETA-ANALYSIS · 2003
4.4mmHg↓

Average reduction
in systolic pressure.

A meta-analysis of 25 randomised trials with 4,874 participants found that an average net weight loss of 5.1 kg through dietary changes, physical activity or both was accompanied by a systolic blood pressure reduction of about 4.4 mmHg.

Understand the study +

Diastolic pressure fell by around 3.6 mmHg on average. These are averages across studies with different participants and durations, not a formula for predicting an individual's readings or injection outcomes.

03 / BLOOD SUGAR & LIPIDSANALYSIS · 2011
HbA1cHDL · Triglycerides

Measure progress
through health markers.

The Look AHEAD analysis linked weight loss with improvements in HbA1c, triglycerides and HDL. The same association was not shown for LDL in that analysis.

Understand the limitations +

The randomised Look AHEAD follow-up (2013), with a median duration of 9.6 years, did not show a significant reduction in major cardiovascular events. Better readings do not necessarily mean that heart attack or stroke risk has disappeared.
