Is this normal??

Question

im 6ft tall (a girl) and i am 140 pounds! some people even tell me im under weight, but i dont want to believe them! i want to lose weight! what is the normal weight of 6ft tall person?

Answer 1

Height of 6 ft with weight of 140lb = Body Mass Index of 19.0
The BMI Categories listed below show that you are just inside the normal weight range. If you lose almost any weight you will be classified as underweight. You should go see a nutritionist and your doctor. If you really feel that you want to lose more weight or feel that you are "fat" then you should see a therapist NOW. You may be squishy which makes you feel fat but that just means you should tone up so you have more muscle and less squishy. I started working out at Curves and lost several inches even though I gained 10 lbs. That gain was all muscle and the inches lost were all fat. Even though I'm heavier now, I look like I've lost 15 lbs or more. Even people who don't have to be nice to me say so :-)

Underweight = <18.5
Normal weight = 18.5-24.9
Overweight = 25-29.9
Obesity = BMI of 30 or greater

Answer 2

I would say you're weight is perfect for your height. As someone said before, it depends on your frame as well. If I recall correctly, you fit into the proper weight range for your height. Not everyone carries their weight the same either and most people have problem areas that they might think they need to lose weight in, even if they don't.

I don't know what you look like but I can see how people would say you're underweight, but it's simply an opinion. What is more important is that your diet is healthy and you're getting proper nutrition.
