Based on results reported from the NHANES II Survey (the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey II) for people living in the United Staztes during 1976-1980, we use exploratory data analysis, probability plots, and the method of maximum likelihood to fit Lognormal distributions to percentiles of body weight for males and femails as a function of age from 6 months through 74 years. The results are immediately useful in probabilistic (and deterministic) risk assessments.
