depending on your frame 120-135.....the thing to measure it by for a woman is for 5' a woman is suppose to weigh 105 and then every inch after that you add 5 lbs so at 5'7" I would say about 135....that is for a normal size frame.

According to the Body Mass Index chart your body weight should be between 122-149 lbs.

It depends on your bone mass, and not just age and weight. On the Oprah show the doctor said your waist measurement should be no greater than 32" for females, and 35" for males. Age does not matter when it comes to how much you weigh. Just guessing I would say 130.

I am 5'5" and weigh about 130 pounds, but I should be more 120 pounds. I think you should be more 110 to 125+ pounds for a healthy realistic weight.

BMI and BMR for weight loss
All of us know that we gain weight when we take extra calories and lose weight when we consume lesser calories. We need to know how much we should weigh and how many calories we should consume everyday in a healthier way. BMI helps us in knowing how much we should weight. I have already written about BMI in earlier of my post. If you need to know about BMI, you can get it from my post Know if you need to lose weight.
http://fast-weightloss.blogspot.com/2006/09/know-if-you-need-to-lose-weight.html
And BMR can calculate the amount of calories we should consume. BMR, which is Basal Metabolic Rate, informs you the amount of calories you need everyday as a way to retain the current weight. To calculate your BMR you have to just enter your sex, age and weight in pounds. So know the amount of calories you need everyday to keep up with the current weight.

If you are satisfied with your current weight, only then you should enter your current weight. Otherwise you should enter your goal weight in pounds which you ant to achieve. So in this way taking the amount of calories you should, you will slowly get the desired weight you were looking for. But before making any changes in your eating pattern, it is always good to take help from your doctor.
So you will also find BMI and BMR really helpful weight loss tools by which you are able to know the amount of calories you need to get to the desired weight.

Ok, I'll admit that I'm a guy.
I'm 5'6.
When I was nineteen I weighed 132. Oh how I miss those days!

Anywhere between 135 and 150 is about right for your height. Aim higher if you're large framed, lower if you're built small.
