1. bmi

   BMI, or Body Mass Index, is a numerical value derived from a person's weight and height. It is defined as a person's weight in kilograms divided by the square of his or her height in meters. It is used as a screening tool to identify potential weight problems in adults. However, it is not a diagnostic tool and should be used in conjunction with other measurements and assessments for determining an individual's overall health status.

   British Midland Airways Limited was an airline with its head office in Donington Hall in Castle Donington, close to East Midlands Airport, in the United Kingdom. It was acquired by International Airlines Group in April 2012 and was integrated into British Airways by 27 October 2012. The airline flew to destinations in Europe, the Middle East, Africa and Central Asia from its operational base at London Heathrow Airport, where at its peak it held 11 per cent of all takeoff and landing slots and operated over 2,000 flights a week. BMI was a member of Star Alliance until it withdrew on 20 April 2012. The airline was a wholly owned subsidiary of IAG, the owners of BA, who announced an agreement in December 2011 to buy the airline from Lufthansa. The deal was completed on 20 April 2012 and also included subsidiaries Bmibaby and BMI Regional, although IAG did not wish to retain either. BMI Regional was sold to Sector Aviation Holdings in May 2012, and Bmibaby closed down in September 2012. British Midland Airways Limited held a Civil Aviation Authority Type A Operating Licence, permitting it to carry passengers, cargo and mail on aircraft with 20 or more seats.

Examples of BMI in a Sentence

   This checklist of 10 reasons your internal thermostat is out of whack can help you get a handle on why you're chronically freezing your butt off. You're too thin Low body weight — defined as a BMI hovering around 18.5 or under — can chill you out for a couple of reasons. First, when you're underweight, you lack an adequate level of body fat to insulate you from cold temperatures, explained Maggie Moon, RD, a Los Angeles – based nutritionist. The other thing is, to maintain that low BMI, you have to reduce your food intake so you likely aren't eating very much at all. Skimping on calories puts the brakes on your metabolism, so you don't create enough body heat. Consider putting on a few pounds by loading up on whole, healthy foods that contain lots of protein, fat, and complex carbohydrates.
