Know if you need to lose weight
Health specialist use a measure called BMI, short for Body Mass Index. Body mass index (BMI) is a measure of body fat based on height and weight that applies to both adult men and women. This gives a good measure of your total body fat. BMI compares your height and weight. It shows if you are underweight, at a healthy weight, or overweight.

Your BMI is 23.0 That's PERFECT!!!! You are NOT overweight! Normal weight range is between 18.5- 24.9, so keep up the good work. Also, BMI is not the best determinant of health...it doesn't take into account bone mass or extra muscle mass. So even if a person's BMI says they're overweight, it isn't necessarily true.

A lot of the girls I know who are 5'5" weigh about 110 pounds. It is really hard to tell without a photo, but I guess it wouldn't hurt to lose some weight.

Are you proportioned? There's nothing wrong with being thick by any means...honestly Paris Hilton thin is a turn off, women should have curves its seductive...just stay fit and you'll have no complaints believe that.

Skip waiting bedrooms. When you have an visit, check in and then go out for a walk until the particular receptionist phones you.
