How thin is it to look good on camera?

If you want to be thin enough to look good on camera, there is no certain standard for your weight, mainly based on the body mass index.

For people with small or large skeletons, the body mass index can be between 16-20; For exercise or plump people, the body mass index is between 20 and 22; If you are 154cm and your body mass index is 17, then your weight is 80.6kg, and so on.

The body mass index of supermodels is basically between 14 and 16. Supermodels are often athletic and muscular, so ordinary people will look thinner than supermodels if they are supermodels. Stars are generally between 15.5-20.5. No matter supermodel or star, what we see in the video is a little fatter than ourselves, and the whole person will be enlarged in front of the camera, so ordinary people don't need such a low body mass index.

Body mass index calculation method

Body mass index refers to body mass index, and the standard formula is body mass index = weight/height 2, such as height 1.75m, weight 70kg, and body mass index (BMI) = 70/(1.75x1.75) = 22.86.

The standard of body mass index is the number obtained by dividing the weight and kilograms by the square of the height and meters, which is the standard to measure the degree of obesity and health indicators. It is generally used for statistical analysis of the health effects of weight on people of different heights, and the body mass index value is a reliable indicator. But the body mass index is not suitable for children or people who are too short. Because there are some errors in the calculation of body mass index standards, body mass index can only be used as one of many standards to evaluate individual weight and health status.
