What weight should I be for my height?

Question

Age : 16

Height: 6' 4" (Almost 2 metres in metric, don't know exact conversion)

Current Weight: 127lbs

I know I'm skinny, I just want to know what my proper weight should be, and what is the best way to achieve that?

My current diet is a lot of ice cream, cereal, toast, and other carb type food, although I don't know much about carbs and food and stuff.

Answer 1

whoa! i'm gonna use your diet. haha jk i'm pretty skinny too. i have a high metabolism.

uumm... i think you should weigh at least 160. i dont know how you can get that weight. you have a pretty high metabolism.

Answer 2

d**n, skinny. For that height, you should be thirty+ pounds heavier, but that's only in my opinion.

Whatever you're comfortable with is cool too. You don't have to submit to the whole weight/height thing.

Answer 3

well according to the bmi scale a healthy weight for your height should be between 150 and 200, as for how you want to put the weight on it depends what kind of weight you put on if you eat ice cream its not gonna be healthy weight.  if you want to gian some muscle get up in the weightroom a little bit. and if you want to put on lean weight try eating lots of proteins. and you are only 16 youll only get heavier as you get older too.

Answer 4

keep it up!!!

Answer 5

you seem to be pretty much in shape. im not sure on the exact figures. but that diet wont help much. just because your skinny now, but as you get older, and hold of the exerise the weight is bound to creep on..

keep exersing regually, and try eating more healthy foods.

remember your five a day!

its all for a reason :)

Answer 6

Your ideal weight would be 212 lbs so below 192 lbs could be regarded as underweight.  You are probably about 65 lbs underweight.

A good supper every night would help as you burn up very few calories in your sleep.

Plenty of fattening nuts would also help.
