How does this tool help me?

It's important to remember that your BMI score is not a be-all, end-all measurement, as BMI doesn't take in to account whether your weight is from lean muscle mass, or fat. Meaning that you could potentially lose a great deal of fat and still be classified as overweight, especially if you're an athlete or bodybuilder. So use BMI as a starting point, but for true measurements, getting your body fat percentage tested is the better approach.
