A member asked:

What is an ideal weight for a small framed, 5'4 teenage female?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

About 120 lbs: Although weight can vary for everyone, and different weight is appropriate for different people, for a person about 5'4" the ideal weight is about 100 lbs for 5 feet and then about 5 lbs per inch, so about 120 lbs give or take 10lbs.
