Question

please help me

i need to know if im overweight

Answer 1

it depends on your age too. um from what ive been told, its 100lbs for the 1st 5ft, and 3-5 lbs for each additional inch. so for being 5'8 you should be around 124-140lbs. its also depends on your bone density, and muscle mass. My aunt is 5'4 and she weighs 145, but shes not overweight. She is just really muscular and has thick bones.. hope this helps

Answer 2

depends on age

130-150lbs for ages 13-30yrs

healthy weight chart (females only)

5'0"=100lbs

5'1"=105lbs

5'2"=110lbs

5'3"=115lbs

5'4"=120lbs

5'5"=125lbs

5'6"=130lbs

5'7"=135lbs

5'8"=140lbs

5'9"=145lbs

(this weight chart gives a healthy weight to height ratio according to a BMI scale and even gives a few pounds to spare)
