Question 2

healthy weight for 5'5" 16 yr old female?

Accepted Answer

Around 120: Healthy weight may be different for all as genetic, familial and developmental issues affects it. For example the bone structure and size will influence the healthy weight. Are you an athlete or body builder? More important would be your body composition, in other words your fat percentage. This is more predictive of present and future health.

Question 3

what is a healthy weight for a 5'8'' female?

Accepted Answer

There is a range: YEARS ago, when I was in medical school, we were taught that ideal weight was 100# for a woman 5 feet in height; then add 5 pounds per inch, so for 5'8"--140 pounds. This is pretty close. But you need to make allowances for muscularity, fitness, genetically bigger bones, etc., so I would say a range of 135 to 150 pounds would be ideal. You could also aim for 22-26% body fat. Good wishes:)

Question 5

Depends - body frame: Also important is your body "frame" - small/medium/large: you can refer to body normograms.  A simple trick:  wrap your thumb and middle finger around your wrist - if they cross you're a small frame, if they touch you're "medium, " and if they cannot touch you're a "large" framed individual.

Question 6

Accepted Answer

Sounds ok: That sounds ok for a 20 year-old. A ballpark number for women can be 100 pounds for the first 5 feet of height, plus 5 pounds for each additional inch above 5 feet. In this case, 100 + 45 = 145 pounds. Depending on one's body build, a range of 130-160 pounds should be just fine.

Estimate: Using your body mass index, your ideal weight would be around 140-150 pounds. That is a substantial weight loss goal, but will have significant long term benefits for you. You will likely need ongoing coaching and help to lose that amount of weight and keep it off.  Consider finding a well educated trainer who knows nutrition or a trainer and a nutritionist to help you make the lifestyle changes.
