Acording to a BMI calculator, you are just a little, little bit overweight. Just keep working out and eating right and you'll be fine.

You are not at all over-weight. Get ur BMI(Body to Mass Index) checked. If its 24 or less, I think you are just doin fine. You really dont want to be called skinny, do you?

I wish I was 128 again sweetie! I know how you feel though...when I was in highschool I swore I was overweight at 125 lbs and the same height as you. Now...after having a child I have gained and am 150lbs. I know I am overweight now. I would give anything to once again be that skinny 125! You are fine the way you are!

At 5'6" and 137 pounds your BMI calculates to 22.1 This falls in the middle of the normal BMI range. As you indicated that you are physically active and work-out regular I have to assume you have above average muscle structure. Thus your weight is most likely just about perfect. If you belong to a Gym or fitness center see if they can measure your body fat percentage. This will give you an even better idea how close you are to your perfect body weight

The ideal weight for your height is between 114 to 135. Sounds like your a little underweight. I wish I had that problem lol..

Are you asking what the proper weight is or height \nIf weight them that is a hard question everyone is built different \nI am 6'1" and the doctors say I should be about 175 but I will never be under 200  \nMuscle and body build can be a hard thing to judge.\nI hope that you are happy with the way you are and don't get sucked into what everyone thinks you should be or how you should look \nIf you were asking about height then I think that 5'1" sounds about right

You are well within a healthy range. The top number for your height before being considered as "overweight" on the Body Mass Index scale is about 138 or 139 pounds. 19-25 % BMI is normal. You are about a 21 %. If you still feel uncomfortable about your appearance, perhaps some muscle toning would make you feel better?

At 5'7" and 120 pounds your BMI calculates to 19.1. Depending on who you talk to you are either at the very bottom of the normal scale or just below. \n\nI am hoping you are a small boned lady and this is your ideal weight. Please don't try to lose any more.\n\nIt is great that you feel better about yourself. As for healthy I am not sure. Again it depends on you and your body. How do you feel, how is your energy and stamina?\n\nEven more important, how are you going to maintain your weight and still get the nutrition your body needs?

You'll get vastly different answers depending upon whom you ask.  Particularly whether you ask women, or men.  Persnally, I don't think here's a perfect weight for all women because women gain in different ways.  One 5'5 woman might look much hotter at 135 than she did at 115 because she's lucky enough to gain weight in flattering places (i.e. bigger boobs and a juicy, round butt) while another woman might look better at 115 because all she gets when she gains is a tubby li'l gut and flabby arms.  \n\n\n..... *sigh* life's not fair.

Hardly. I'm 5'8'' and 135 pounds and I think my weight is just right. Don't pay attention to the Mary-Kates and Lindseys of the world honey. You are probably going to grow to 5'10'' and be hot supermodel!

nope you are fine! !!!! \nKeep up a healthy life style and take care of yourself now or you will regret it when you are my age.\n\nThe chart I am looking at says you can go up to 155 lbs if you are larger boned and not be cinsidered over weigght... \n\nbut I would be no more than 141 if I was you!

Well, I recently decided to go on a diet because I am also 5'6 but I weigh 160 lbs. My doctor encouraged me to drop about 10 -15lbs, because I am supposedly "above average"! Actually he showed me the BMI (Body Mass Index) and it proved that as a "female" w/ my height I am supposed to be 115-145 in order to be considered healthy! I dont know I was suprised too, I know I should lose my stomach fat, but hey I guess I need to do more than that.

I'm 5'2" and weigh about 116 or 118 I don't look fat all I need is to work out. Your only 2" taller than me. and if your weigh is 116 then you probably look great, all you need is to do some exercise to tone up. Maybe you will loose a little weigh on the process (that doesn't hurt) but at the end you'll look better. In regards to a diet don't know of any and don't think you need one. Just do what my doctor said eat breakfast every day before 10a.m. which is the most important meal of the day and helps with the metabolism and something light in the evening and don't eat dinner past 9p.m. You'll look better in no time.

I think you are at a very healthy weight for your height. It's important to eat right and exercise, but most of all, it's important to love yourself. Too many girls are consumed with the thought that they are fat, when what they are is muscular, and/or physically fit.

As a mom to a girl who is your age, I think you all sound pretty normal to me!  I don't think that girls your age should be so obsessed with your weight!  Sweetie you all are still growing, and your bodies will continue to change for a few more years!  My best advice to you would be to let nature take its course, and to eat healthy and stay fit!  If you are good to your bodies, they will be good to you!

I thinnk going down like to about 10 to 20 pounds be all right too. I know a girl who is your height and she's 105 lb. Her doctor said she's doing fine. Not underweight at all. BTW, I kinda agree with Pun. She's right.
