Question 1

what is an ideal weight for men of 28yrs and 5feet 8inches?

Accepted Answer

It depends: A man is at his best body weight if he has little or no body fat and is competitive at his favorite sport. This varies with build and interests. A lot of nonsense is written about "ideal weight". A gold-medal runner is likely to be "underweight".  A zero-bodyfat football linebacker is likely to be "obese". Focus on fitness, rather than a number.

Question 5

i am 5'0 tall and 47 years old and active, what should my ideal weight be?

Accepted Answer

Youthful bodyweight: Think of when you were 21 years old-- how much did u weigh then? And how did your body look?  Through exercise and excellent nutrition I think we can slow the aging process and look/feel good. Weight is just a number on a scale-- better to take a different perspective I would say. Keep in mind- muscle is denser than fat! Results may take some time but don't give up!  Live well!

Question 6

i want to know what is the ideal weight of a  40yr old who is 5'0 and weights 143 pounds?

Accepted Answer

It depends: It depends on the age and frame size, but generally, a 43 year old woman who if 5 feet tall should probably weight between 105 and 115 pounds.  Check out a body mass index (bmi) calculator and see what yours is.  If you are in the 18-24 range, you are considered to be ok, although ideal is thought to be 22.

Question 7

what is the ideal weight for a 5'0'' girl?

Accepted Answer

Idea weight: 100 pounds plus or minus 10%  (in general).

Question 8

i currently weigh 230 lbs. can you suggest how can i loose 50 pounds to attain my ideal weight of 180 lbs.

Accepted Answer

Sustainable diet: Diet is the only way. Start with small changes like only drinking water. This will help cut calories that don't fill you up. There is some evidence that even diet soda which has no calories makes you hungrier because of the artificial sweetener. Think long term and get support, it's a tough road to hew by yourself.

Question 9

what is my ideal weight?

Accepted Answer

Healthy weight range: At one's routine check-up, he can ask about his "ideal" weight, which usually means his "healthy weight range".  The best weight for a person varies, depending on amount of muscle, body build, any medical problems, etc...  For a guy, a quick estimate is 106 pounds for the first 5 feet of height, plus 6 pounds for each additional inch. So, for a 68" person, an estimate can be 106+48 = 154 pounds.

Question 10

what is an ideal weight for a goal?

Accepted Answer

NOT a goal: Please forgive me -- the goal is to enjoy life, be healthy and do the things you enjoy, not to pursue a number. And in fact, your weight will set itself when you are doing the things that are most enjoyable and healthy. Your "ideal weight" is whatever looks & feels right to you while you can keep up with peers at fitness activities. All the rest is sub-science. Enjoy your life & be wise.
