How much should you weigh if you are 22 years old and 5'3 tall?

Answer 1

That depends. Most importantly, are you a guy or a gal? Use a body mass index (bmi) calculator to find out if you are in the range of "normal". Between 18.5 and 24.9 bmi is considered normal here, but they aren't differentiating between gender. I think women are basically allowed to have a higher one than men because of the ratio of fat to muscle but I might have that backwards. http://www.cdc.gov/healthyweight/assessing/bmi/adult_bmi/english_bmi_calculator/bmi_calculator.html Here is another one that is more advanced taking into account age and gender. It seems that between ages 20 and 29 there is no difference. I also tried to see if there would be a difference if I pretended to be the opposite gender and it didn't so I don't know how exactly that comes into play. http://www.halls.md/body-mass-index/av.htm I'm actually about your age and size (a little older and taller) and I'm 116 and within the normal range but a little low, for example.
