Very healthy: BMI=21 That's quite close to ideal body weight. Assuming your weight is equally distributed throughout your body, not all around your waist you seem to be at a healthy weight for your height. Keep up the good work. Eat healthy, exercise and be happy. Thanks for trusting HealthTap!

Guidline: For a female, a guideline often is for every inch over 5 feet, add 5 lbs per inch over 100.Therefore 130 lbs would be fine for your height. However looking in the mirror is also a good way to see if you like what you see.
