Does everyone think this is a good weight?

Question

I'm 5'3 and and 118 pounds..i am thinking about going on a diet so that i can get toned..cutting the carbs and eating more veggies. Does anyone else have any tips?

Answer 1

Your actually under the ideal weight according to adult BMI this could be considered normal if you workout alot (6-8)hours minimum per week or if you are a runner. I would recomend after talking and getting approval from your doctor to not go on a diet but just keep up general fitness(an example would be 1hr per day 2-3 days per week). normal adult BMI for 5'3" is extremes are 105-140lbs and Ideal weight is between 122-123 lbs.  

Answer 2

Exercising and eating more veggies is always a good idea. But in terms of weight you're right around where you're supposed to be. A 63" female's "ideal" weight is 115 lbs.

Answer 3

Answer 5

Your weight is perfect for your height - 100 lbs for the first 5 feet of your height plus 5 pounds per additional inch...so you're good.

Exercise sensibly to tone your body and adding more fruits and veggies to your diet is always a wonderful idea, because they are full of vitamins and minerals and help keep you full...less likely to snack on junk food.

Answer 6

exercise by going on a walk or doing a few sit ups. this is what im doing right now i always listen to my ipod while i exercise because it keeps me busy so i do more.

and yes that is a good weight(:
