You didn't specify age or male/famale.\nIf you are a child, then 100 pounds is about right for 5'2".\nIf you are an adult, you might be under-weight.\nCheck out the chart at the link.

No, you are not overweight.  Check out http://www.tbfinc.com/overweight.htm\nNot showing you this as a weight loss thing but for the weight chart (quickest one I could find).\nI'm 17 year old female and a sophomore in NROTC (Marine Corps Option).  We have to keep a certain weight (or they look at our body fat %).  I'm 5'5-5'6 but my weight goes between 129-135...depending on my water consumption and amount of time im working out that week.  I've got very little body fat though, lots of muscle mass.\n  http://usmilitary.about.com/od/marines/l/blweightfemale.htm\nYou are still within a good weight even by Marine Corps standards so don't listen to the few idiots on here.\nIf you feel "overweight" start working out...even lightly.  If you gain lbs after that chances are its muscle or water--not fat.

yup! im 21 and im about the same with you (5'9) what matters is if your height and weight proportional. substract your height by 110 and you should get your ideal weight :)

go to a search engine, type in body mass index. Don't worry about your weight, even if you are obese, don't go to extremes. I am about 16 five five, and I am supposed to weigh more than 110, more like 115-125. I forgot, but don't stress it, just look it up if you must, and remember, you are growing, so you will be a bit off anyway.

All you need to do is check one of those BMI index things.  I put in your height and tried some weights.  It would be normal for you to weigh from about 101 to 135 pounds.

I don't think you are overweight.  Given your information your ideal weight should range between 111 to 150.   Keep the exercise and good nutrition if you know there is a family tendency, but you should not be worry about dieting.

Please do not persist on this dangerous course.  At 5'2" 115 pounds, I looked great, which means you don't need to lose any weight.  You might want to actually gain some weight.  I'm sure that you are beautiful the way you are.  Don't fall into the media's trap of what a woman should look like.

Oh, my -- please ignore the answer that says you should be around 85. Yes, there are some women who are naturally very tiny-boned and weigh in their 80s or 90s when they are 5'2", but a general VERY ROUGH guideline is that a woman (which you would be, physically, at age 16) who is 5 feet weighs 100 pounds. Then, for every inch thereafter, add on five pounds. So the "guideline weight" for you at 5'2" would be 110.\n\nHOWEVER, please take that with a grain of salt. That's only a rough guideline without taking into account how muscular you are, your bone structure, or any of those factors. You really should not go by weight -- it's a meaningless number. Concentrating on health and fitness will get you both an ideal weight and a great appearance. If you must go by a numerical measure, you might want to measure your body mass index instead. It's much more telling than just your weight. The link below connects you to a BMI calculator.

I don't think you are over wait.  Probably all the weight is coming from all the muscle you have.  Muscle weighs more then fat does.  So i don't think so. As long as you eat right and excercise then i think you are in great shape.

According to a health book I read, you're somewhat underweight. Here's how you find your correct weight. 5' tall= 100 pounds. Then add 5 pounds/inch, so you'd weigh 125 lbs., then measure around your wrist, over the bone, and add or subtract 5 lbs. for each 1/2 inch under or over 5".

No, it is not overweight.  You are just in the just right range.  Don't worry about it.
