Your BMI is approx. 20 which is low normal weight.

no, not at all.  that's roughly 119 pounds, which puts your BMI (Body Mass Index) at 21.1.  a normal BMI falls between 18.4 and 24.9, so you're well within the normal range.  anything below 18.4 is considered underweight, so I'm sure you're very healthy!

WRONG!!!!!\n\nDischarge for failure to meet height/weight standards is generally not grounds for an unfavorable discharge.  If you have no adverse personnel actions, you should expect at worse a general discharge.  I would, however, expect it to be an honorable discharge.  Seek out an attorney if they try to pursue anything else.  (See the classified section of Army Times.)

Yes, your body mass index is only a 20.  You are considered to be of a healthy weight.  You would have to be 104 or less to be underweight or 139+ to be overweight.  You are at an appropriate weight.

It depends on your bone structure, but the reccomended weight for shorties like us (I'm 5'4") is betweem 115-135 lbs.  And if you're happy with your body, don't do anything about it, just accept the fact that everyone is different.  If you're not happy, eating right and exercise are the only permenant treatments I know.

You'll be fine gurl...lol...like the previous person said...they'll put you on a diet plan and it's up to YOU to keep it. As far as age....I can't remember what the cut age is or the size restrictions but yea...call your local recruiting office and they'll tell you.

Not hardly - for every inch over 5 feet you should have 3 to 5  pounds if you are physically and expect to be nutritionally fit.

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

As a rule of thumb, when I grew up we figured a decent weight was height (in cm) - 100. For your ideal weight you were supposed to subtract 10% if you're male and 15% if female. \nCompared to modern BMI standards this is a bit to generous - they expect you to be thinner, but it certainly worked well for me (when I am at my perfect BMI people desperately want to feed me, I am way too thin).  Since there are also differences in individual build, there is always more leeway than any of weight-height table seem to be willing to give you. \nJudging from personal experience, I feel that you're at worst SLIGHTLY overweight (but perhaps not at all). Fat or obese - NEVER.

just a bit of help, have an apearance of weight is not an issue, medicaly, job performance, etc...\n\nif the job is being on your feet, then "your hobbies" are walking, musuems, etc..\n\npeople may have an internal thought as you may be unable to perform the job, so give them an example that you can\n\njust my 2 cents, hope it helps

No your body mass index is 18.4, your underweight.

Once you are running those streets  and grinder of MCRD, and eating that Marine Corps chow, it shouldn't take you long to trim down to fightin weight.  In the beginning it will be tough, but if you start right now, you should be able to drop 20#'s or so, if you really put your mind to it.  Putting your mind to it is what the Marine Corps is all about, so go for it!\n\nTell your DI to say Hi! to Sgt/Mjr Woods  from the clock man, when you get there, he'll know who you're talking about.

Why people still rely on pounds as a judgement for their health amazes me yet today.  It is a myth that should be overcome.\n\nAt my healthiest (and I was very trim and firm) I was 170lbs at 5'8".  People would judge that, at first glance, as an unhealthy weight range.  But what people don't consider is that if you are a fit, trim, muscle heavy person... you will weigh more.\n\nIf you need a guide, try the Air Force body fat standards:\nhttp://usmilitary.about.com/od/airforcejoin/a/afmaxweight.htm\n\n"The formula to compute BMI is weight (in pounds) divided by the square of height (in inches), multiplied by 704.5 (Don't worry about that though, the below chart shows the maximum and minimum weights using the formula)."  Which if you go to the website it will show you what I copied and pasted next --> At 66inches, your maximum weight can be 170lbs, mininum can be 117lbs.\n\nSo you see, you're right where you should be.  And if you're concerned about not being fit enough (not skinny enough) then try this.  It will give you killer toe jumps as a cheerleader:\n\n* Hang from a workout bar, a tree trunk, playground bars, etc.\n* Raise your legs up and out in a 'V' shape\n* Hold for one minute\n* Rest for one minute\n* Repeat 10 times, every day\n\nTry running if you want to take off some fat (notice I didn't say pounds or weight).  It burns a lot of calories and gives your heart a workout.\n\nTo make sure that you're utilizing your food intake correctly, eat like a:\n* King for breakfast (big meal)\n* Prince for lunch (medium size meal)\n* and a Pauper for dinner (small meal)\n\nI wish you the best, and chin up because you don't have to feel this way forever!

No, not even close. My fiance is about 5'4, 135lbs and has a bangin' body. Kind of like your numbers but on a smaller  proportional scale. Its perfect for a nice girl who doesn't have any major compulsive disorders.
