I tried the same code. But i have some doubts.

1) The percentages are matching but the not the no. of obs. (Estimates Attached)
2) Further you have not used any of the conditions mentioned in the footnotes. (Images Attached)
i) Pregnancy
ii) Birth within preceding 2 months.
iii) Slept at night
3) Why did you put 0 for the values greater than 9998 for the BMI?


Estimates

Underweight - 45.9; 51103
Normal- 38.2; 128260
Overweight 27.1; 32318
