By standard do you mean what is the average, what is the healthiest, what is considered normal?
One "standard" is 100 pounds for the first 5 feet and 5 pounds per inch after that.

There's an old formula that says 5'0" should be around 100 lbs, then you add another 5 lbs for each additional inch. That would put 5'2" at around 110 lbs.
But I think there are so many other factors! Body type, fata/muscle ratio, etc. But most notably age. I've heard that women average 1 lb of weight gain for every year after 25 yrs. Obviously your weight is influenced by your metabolism, and this tends to slow over time.

My wife is 5 2" (age 40) with an average frame. She s trying to lose weight and I told her to shoot for 125lbs.
After reading this, that weight sounds like an attainable goal for her.

HI! I have had three children and weigh about 113 pounds. I am 5 foot 1 inches. On the scales at GNC it says for a medium build at 5'2" you should weigh between 109-120. As long as you feel good about yourself and are pretty healthy you shouldn't be concerned.

In the mood for some sort of hot meal? Make a enormous pot of veggie bean soup, divide into two-cup containers, and store in the freezer. Before bed, place a container inside the fridge, then grab it before heading out the door each day.

Add cooked whole grains into a salad to increase the dietary fiber and protein and make the meal feel as pleasing.
