I'm 5'4 and 114 pounds. i want to lose weight. how much weight loss is healthy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Weight loss: Please don't lose weight! I strongly suggest you see a nurse practitioner who will help you to get to reasonable body weight. 114 pounds may be too little for your height. Don't need to put on much weight but I am confident that a small increase in weight will be very helpful
