Answer 1

To make a healthy estimate of your healthy body weight based on how tall you are, it's a good idea to calculate your BMI (body mass index). You can do this pretty simply on a BMI calculator, I've found this one and it's from the NHS so I would suspect it to be quite reliable:

Whatever the outcome, I wouldn't fret about your weight, it sounds fine and you shouldn't be concerned about it at your age :)

Answer 2

try  this ideal weight calculator, based on age, gender and height. It

gives  you the per cent of people heavier than you, too. And shows you

how you compare to others: http://www.halls.md/ideal-weight/body.ht...
