That's a body mass index of 28.2, which is overweight.

Q. What is a quick way to estimate a healthy weight?
Healthy Weight For Women
Allow 105 pounds for 5 feet.
If you are taller, add an extra 5 pounds per inch.
If you are shorter, subtract 5 pounds per inch.
The healthy weight range will be about 10 per cent either side of the final figure.
Example of Healthy Weight (Women)
If you are 5 feet 2 inches, allow yourself 105 pounds plus 2 x 5 pounds. This totals 115 pounds. The healthy weight range for a woman of 5 feet 2 inches is therefore approximately 103-127 pounds.
According to this, you shouldn't weigh over 154 lbs.

I'm 5'4, 130 pounds, & i could be considered fat. So I would say 5'7 180 pounds is overweight, not by a lot though, maybe 20 pounds=)

I'm sorry, but that is really overweight. I am 5'10 and I was overweight at 160. You need to lose AT LEAST 30 pounds, minimum. I am just being honest with you. I think these other folks are just trying to make you feel better, but sometimes you have to "cruel to be kind." You have to lose weight. Do it in a healthy way. www.zonediet.com

Is she muscular?
Does she have a 'sturdy' type of frame?
- I hate to say big boned, but people with tiny, fine bone structures do not carry extra weight as naturally as someone with a bigger frame.
Is she healthy or has she spent the last few hours looking at fashion photos?
Just for fun, please watch this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=knEIM16NuPg
It is a short film in which a girl goes from 'normal' to 'billboard'

The weight should not be an issue unless it is causing medical problems "WHAT IS NORMAL ANYWAY"
