What is the healthy weight for someone who is 5'8?

Question

I'm just wondering what is a healthy weight for someone who is 5'8. I'm 5'8 and weigh 103.4 pounds. Is this a healthy weight or is it a little to heavy? please help me.

Answer 1

103 is below average weight for someone your height. 122-164 lbs. is considered normal weight range.

It seems unusual to me that you know your weight to a one-hundredth of a decimal point. I'm concerned that you may be obsessing too much over your weight if you think you are too heavy at 103 lbs. and 5'8". This may be a sign of an eating disorder or poor self-image. You may want to seek counseling.

Answer 2

Your so thin a healthy weight is 140 lbs.

Answer 3

5' 8" = 126 - 154 lbs

So you are quite a bit under.

Answer 4

a little heavy? you're kidding, right? thats extremely underweight. i know body frame has a lot to do with it, but thats very thin.
