for 5'8" it should be 122lbs. that's 18.5 BMI very normal
BMI Categories:
Underweight = <18.5
Normal weight = 18.5-24.9
Overweight = 25-29.9
Obesity = BMI of 30 or greater

No maximum. For one that stands at 5 feet 8 inches, I think the ideal weight should be in the region of 52 kgs to 60 kgs.

There's a calculator. I put in 125 lbs, and that gave a BMI of 20. So, I would say that is a good minimum. The maximum healthy weight is supposed to be 164.2 lbs, but that's hefty. Aim for between 125 and 145, as that should be about right. Good night!

I think more than what people have been saying with 100-135. I know a person that is 5'2 should weigh around 136. Also, it depends on what type of body that you have. Do not go for any unrealistic weight. Be healthy, and also remember that girls are made to have curves!

I'm 5'9" and 125-155 is the avg weight for 5'9"
so I'm guessing 125-150 or so for you??
It also depends on your body shape and structure and muscle mass, etc.
I suggest going to an online BMI calculator.

To have a "Normal” Body mass index for your height you need to be been 123lb and 164lb. So according to the BMI index the maximum is 164lb
As for the "Thick frames" I am yet to see a Fat Skeleton.
The only acceptations to the BMI is for people that are muscular and they actually weigh more for their height.

Totally depends on body type. Thin frame and sporty could be 120lbs. Larger uptop and curvy could still look good up to 138
