I'd say not to go lower than 115. Maybe 123 just because its a neat looking number and is supposed to be the ideal according to one thing. Just aim for 130 and see how that works out first.



very few people can be at that weight and have it be healthy. That would place her at a BMI of 16.3 which known as failing in the severe underweight range which is beyond the underweight range. Under 17.5 is considered the range people have health problems that those with anorexia have and it is used as to help diagnose anorexia.

Nah, not really. I've been 95 lbs recently and my health was quite good. And while I was slim, I wasn't bony at all. Also, you don't know what anorexia is. Bye.

I never said it applies to everyone. Its just naïve to tell someone you dont know anything about to go that low.

I know what anorexia is. I have friends diagnosed with various ED's and I read about psychology all the time. One of the things they use is weight as an indicator sometimes. For example in the UK they wont even treat someone unless they have a certain BMI which is a mistake really. I know that since I know someone over there. I never said low weight = anorexia. There are two meanings to anorexia. Anorexia just means the lack of appetite. Anorexia nervosa is a psychological desire not to eat and anorexia in the other context is a medical symptom from illness causing lack of appetite. If you are a certain low weight you actually shorten lifespan and when I say you I mean in the general sense. Also how low you can go in weight depends on how much muscle to fat ratio you have. Higher muscle amounts makes going lower more possible. Some people are built different and can go lower but in the general sense its not "ideal" except to your own standards of appearance. Anorexia does NOT mean bony.

LMAO, you clearly have not elaborated on your statement in your previous post and have primarily talked about weight so of course someone will make that assumption. You blind or something, bro? You just want to brag about your knowledge here, don't you?

I edited my post a little to clarify better before you sent that reply. I never brag. I was trying to be helpful. I'm sorry if you felt offended about a generalized medically accepted statement that included the exceptions to the rule mentioned.

I had a girlfriend around that height and weight that was perfectly fine. She was really sexy :3. Some people are just lightweights.

Usually east Asians and Russians among a few other ethnicities are more often able to be fairly petite than other ethnicities. More so in their teens

Also that girl in that pic seems slightly taller a bit and she appears less than 95 id say. So not really a good representation.

But you dont know what she looks like, do you? Even if you did its not a good way to say things.

Congrats on losing those pounds!
However, to state my opinion, there is no "perfect weight". Height isn't the only thing that influences what your ideal weight should be. It depends on your body composition: muscle mass, body fat percentage, etc. But on average, I think weighing around 120lb is healthy for your height.

^ Yup. I was perfectly fine too. I was actually being conservative with my original answer, because if you're Asian, being 95 lbs is not going to make you that skinny; you're most likely going to be just slim.

I'm 5'3" and weigh 105lbs (around 47-48kg). I'm technically considered underweight. So around 115-120lbs (52-54kg) sounds right.

Probably between 12 and 14 stone

Do the damn metric conversions yourselves

I want to get my weight down to about 14 and a half stone from my current 16 1/2, and I'm about 6 ft 2.

It depends on your gender. Nobody wants a girl who's 5'4 but 161 lbs.

No muscle at all? Like skinny fat? Then I agree with you
If you want muscle probably aim higher (not sure how much more depends on how buff you wanna be lol)

As long as your health is not endangered in any way, whatever weight you choose is great!

It depends on your body type, like others said. I think anywhere between 110-130 is good. I mean one of my best friends is around your height, and she is only about 105-110, but her body/form is pretty much perfect in every possible way. But for you maybe a higher number is more desirable. Just go look in the mirror :D Don't worry too much about it.
