Every one would want to have an ideal weight, because having the ideal weight make us appear more confident and ideal weight is very beneficial to health. Generally people who are too thin or too fat have a big risk to the disease. Individuals are emaciated is identical with malnutrition. as well obese people higher risk of heart disease, hypertension, and diabetes.
According to medical experts fat people will often have a negative impact on the health of the body.[source]

We often heard that there are people who die from excessive weight and such cases still occur today. hence therefore controlling body weight is very important to us. [source] For example World's fatest Women is Died at September 25, 2017 in a media [okezone.com]

Well, how to know the ideal body weight?

To know the ideal weight can be by using the following simple formula. This formula is often used in heavy testing on police and army agencies.

Way (1)

Ideal body weight =body height (cm) - 110

For example, if your body height is 165 cm, then body your ideal weight is 165 cm - 110 = 55 kg.

While another commonly used formula for measuring and controlling weight is Broca's Formula, that's:

Normal Body Weight (kg) =[Height (cm) - 100]

Way (2)

Other ways of getting the ideal body weight can be done using BI with formula:

Normal weight =Body Height (in cm) - 100
Ideal body weight =Normal weight - 10%

[Source: Broca Formula]

Then, normal body weight is :
Normal weight = 165 cm x 100 = 65 kg
Ideal body weight = 65 kg - 10% = 58.5 kg

Conclusion

The result obtained by using formula 1 is 55 kg. whereas the result obtained by using formula 2 is 58.5. but if we combine the two formulas, it can be concluded that for someone who has a height 165 cm, then ideal body weight is 55-58,5 kg.
