41 kg converts to the figure on the left, exactly. Nothing in it is an approximation.
Converting 41 kg

Most converters stop at a decimal stone, which is not a unit anybody says out loud. 6 st 6.4 lb is the form you would use. In pounds alone it is 90.4 lb.
Between which whole stone
41 kg is 6.4 lb past 6 stone and 7.6 lb short of 7. 6 st exactly is 38.1 kg; 7 st is 44.5 kg. If you weigh yourself in stone, those are the two numbers either side of you.

Losing 5 to 20% of 41 kg

The weight loss calculator estimates how long reaching one of those could take at a safe pace, and the weight loss percentage calculator works the other way round, turning weight already lost into a percentage.
BMI is a screening measure, not a diagnosis, and it says nothing on its own about how healthy you are. It does not know how much of you is muscle, and the thresholds are lower for some family backgrounds. What your BMI does and does not say.
The values either side
Scales rarely land on a whole number, and the one you want is often a kilogram either way.
For the conversion in the other direction, or for the full chart, see stone to kg and the kg to stone converter. To put this weight to work, the BMI calculator takes your own height rather than the eight above.
