131 is ideal weight for woman that height.  But maybe not the average weight.  But it's the ideal weight for health purposes.\nI did a lot of research on this.  I'm a woman 5'6"\nif you are a teen it might be a little less.  131 is for adult woman.

You're probably pretty solid...I'm 5'6 and 135 is the minimum I can weigh without starting to look too thin...my preferred range is 135 - 145.\n\nI would imagine you look pretty good...keep up the good work, but allow yourself some time for fun too! To maintain your weight, unless your eating habits are very poor, you should be able to do 1 hr a day 4 or 5 days a week...

it depends on the height of someone.  Let's say that you are about 5 feet tall.  Then it could be anywhere from about 100-135.  Body types can make u look different too, some people look better at different weights, therefore everyone has their own ideal body weight.

On way to find out what a 5'4 female should weigh is to calculate your BMI.  Your BMI is a ratio of your height and weight expressed in a number. To find out your BMI you need to divide your weight (measured in kg) by your height (measured in m) squared. If you do not know your measurements in the metric system you can find any number of BMI calculators online like at \n\nhttp://www.cdc.gov/nccdphp/dnpa/bmi/\n\nThe accepted definitions of weight categories by BMI are: \n\nUnderweight - BMI less than 18.5 \nHealthy weight - BMI between 18.5 and 24.9 \nOverweight - BMI equal to or greater than 25 and up to 29.9 \nObese - BMI equal to or greater than 30 \n\n\nNote: these do not take into account body type so do not rely entirely on these numbers. (ie: if you have a lot of muscle, this makes your weight more and your BMI could say you are overweight when in reality it's just muscle mass).

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!

According to http://www.healthstatus.com/calculate/iwc (copy-pasted from the site):\n\nAccording to your height of 5' 5" your ideal healthy weight is 125 pounds. Your recommended weight range is between 119 and 149 pounds.\n\nThis was calculated using Hamwi formula, a simple formula commonly used by many clinicians.\n\nThese are recommended weights. Talk with your doctor about what weight is best for you and before undertaking any new diet or exercise programs.\n\nYou can learn more about BMI and see what it is for your current weight by checking out our Body Mass calculator.

You are the "perfect" weight if you go by the medical standard that for every 5 ft you should be 100lbs.  Why do you feel you should be 5-10lbs lighter?  Just the number or do you want to be firmer, more fit?  You can up your exercise to become more lean, increasing your muscle mass.  I'm 5'1" and 114 (just weighed today at doc's) and I would like to be down 9-14lbs, but if I increase my muscle and lose some fat, even staying at the same weight, I'll look and feel better for myself.

112 is awfully light for someone that's 5'7". It really depends on your body type I guess. Just be careful and healthy about it.

Well, I'm 4'11 1/2 and my ideal weight is 105. But, I'm 22. So probably around 90. I don't know, there are different factors. Ask your doctor, or find a weight chart on the internet. This is just my guess.

i am 5 one and a half, 25, and 128 lbs. i have always been the skinny one in the group. if you have a little more cushion in your hips, behind, and breasts, believe me you will appreciate this in about 6 years when your "skinny" friends are flat as a bored with no a $ $ !\n\nreal women have curves. boo yah!

I'm 5'5" and have weighed anywhere between 98-125 pounds during my adult life. (not including pregnancies)\n\nI would like to get back to about 112-115. Anything lower than this and I start to feel weak and tired,low energy,etc...\n\nRight now I am 120 and am not happy with that weight,working on it though!  :)\n\nFor the person that said women that ask this question and said their self esteem is usually low,etc...   I have very good self esteem and am just a very DETERMINED  person,thank you.\n\nEveryone has their own 'comfort weight'. The weight that you feel good about both mentally and physically.\n\nIf you base this on the body mass index chart, the normal weight for someone 5'5" is between 120-140 pounds. (Approx)\n\nFeel good,stay healthy and don't worry about what others think. It is more important that YOU are happy.
