Answer to Question 1

Underweight: body weight lower than the weight range that is considered healthy; BMI less than 18.5.
Normal: BNI 18.5 to 24.9
Overweight: BMI 25 to 29.9.
Obese: BMI 30 or more.

Answer to Question 2

Value yourself and others for human attributes other than body weight. Realize that prejudging people by weight is as harmful as prejudging them by race, religion, or gender.
Use positive, nonjudgmental descriptions of your body.
Accept positive comments from others.
Focus on your whole self, including your intelligence, social grace, and professional and scholastic achievements.
Accept that no magic diet exists.
Stop dieting to lose weight. Adopt a lifestyle of healthy eating and physical activity permanently.
Follow the USDA Food Patterns. Never restrict food intake below the minimum levels that meet nutrient needs.
Become physically active, not because it will help you get thin but because it will make you feel good and improve your health.
Seek support from loved ones. Tell them of your plan for a healthy life in the body you have been given.
Seek professional counseling from someone who can help you make gains in self-esteem without weight as the primary focus.
Appreciate body weight for its influence on health, not appearance.
