You should research the ranges of a healthy body mass index (BMI). 117-143 pounds is considered a healthy range. (If you are muscular, though, your weight will be higher.)
Note: Most teenage girls (most women, in fact) see themselves as fatter than they really are. Self-acceptance is priceless! Get it now and save yourself years of headaches.

When I was 16 I weighed about 135-140 lbs. I am kind of muscular, I would say anywhere from 110-140lbs would be in the healthy range.

I am 5'5 and (whenI am not pregnant ) I weigh 130. However, I am also 32. At 15 I weighed 105 tops but I think I was way to skinny. I think you should find a weight that you feel comfortable at and that your doctor says is appropriate. By no means should you go by what society thinks you should weigh.

I would say anywhere from 100-150. It partly depends on your fat-muscle content. two people can weigh exactly the same but have totally different appeareances depending on their fat to muscle proportion; ie, a 140-lb. 5'6" person with high fat content will appear "bigger" and will probably have a bigger size than someone at the same weight with high muscle content. Muscle is leaner but weighs more. Judge on how you look/feel rather than weight.

That depends on your build, how much muscle/fat you have, etc ... everyone's different.
I'm also 16 and 5'6, I weigh 105 pounds, and that's fine for me.
I have friends who are the same height but weigh more, and they're perfectly healthy too.
Just eat healthy and exercise, and you'll be fine.

once you're a 5'6'' lady, whose age is sixteen years flat, then you definately could desire to weigh between 7 stone 6 pounds and 10 stone 12 pounds. once you're a 5'6'' lady whose age is sixteen years and 11 months, you may desire to weigh between 7 stone 9 pounds and 11 stone 2 pounds.

That would depend on your bone structure. I would say that small boned should be about 110 to 120 and large boned around 130 or so.

110-120 or 130 if you have lots of muscle.
