Between 110 and 135, depending on age and build. Under 35 should weigh less, over 35 should weigh more.

Answer 3

Only you can determine what weight makes you look your best. It is mostly NOT your fault, if you need to lose weight. The way you have been taught to eat is responsible for making obesity the number one health problem in the world (according to Atlantic Monthly magazine) replacing hunger and infectious disease. You need to re-learn how to eat so you can become thin. Not a diet, but diet lifestyle.

Answer 4

Well I'm 5'7 and I only weight 105 I'm not all skin an bones lol but im little I try and try to put on weight but i cant because my metabolism is so high it sucks. But anyways I think if someone is 5"2 you should probably weight about 100 to be slim an things but you need some fat lol if you want shapes:P

Answer 5

101 to 136, according to this site, but weight matters less than health. If you are eating healthy and exercising regularly, than your body will figure out what its weight should be. Every one's body is slightly different, so there's no exact weight that's right for every female that is 5'2." It also depends on your bone structure. Some people have a small structure, so they will weight closer to 101, some have medium or large so they will be closer to 136. If you eat healthy and exercise, you won't have any reason to worry about your weight. It will take care of itself.

Answer 6

5' = 100lbs, every inch over 5' add 6lbs. so 2*6 = 12, 100 + 12 = 112lbs, that's ideal. But considering your ethnicity, and most importantly being an American where generally everyone is overweight, I'd say 120lbs is still good.

Answer 7

I'm 5'1" and weigh 145 but I have large hips and what is on me is all muscle and very little fat. Some girls at that height are very small and petite and others are more curvey.

Answer 8

You’re ideal weight range is:


104-137 lbs

Answer 9

It depends on your age. Also weight isn't always the same for everyone at the same age and height. Everyone is shaped differently. It is better to be healthy.

Answer 10

Please see ideal body weight calculators below.

The following healthy living recommendations will help you if you’re trying to lose weight, tone up your muscles, have aspirations of building lean muscle mass, are attempting to get a wash board stomach, or just want to feel better:

*1) Burn more calories then you're consuming everyday and measure your results using the following formula: Calories Consumed minus Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) minus Physical Activity minus the Thermic Effect of Food (TEF). A website that explains this formula in more detail and will help you determine how many calories you need to reach or maintain a certain weight is at http://www.primusweb.com/fitnesspartner/library/weight/calsburned.htm

Get a diet and fitness calculator that you can put on your computer or cell phone. This will allow you to easily calculate the above formula, set goals, log your daily calorie consumption, and register your physical activities.

Set realistic goals for your ideal body weight. Here are two websites that will calculate a suggested body weight:
Adults: http://www.halls.md/ideal-weight/body.htm
Teens/Children: http://www.kidshealth.org/kid/exercise/weight/bmi.html

It is difficult and unhealthy to lose more than one or two pounds per week. There are 3,500 calories in a pound. If you eat 500 fewer calories per day for a week you will lose one pound. If you burn through exercise 500 more calories per day for a week you will lose one pound.

*2) Eat natural and organic foods found on earth versus something created by a corporation to make money. Eat meals in small portions throughout the day and take a good multi-vitamin supplement.

Avoid “High Glycemic Load Carbs” (sugar, pastries, desserts, refined starches such as breads, pasta, refined grains like white rice; high starch vegetables such as potatoes) and drink lots of water. Read this article for more information on high GL Carbs:
