Weighing 104 pounds at 5'5, that would give you a BMI of 17.3.
Most doctors today use the Body Mass Index (BMI) chart to determine what weight is healthy. The BMI takes into account a person's height to determine weight. For a person who is 5'2" tall, the normal weight range is anywhere from 104 lbs- 131 lbs.
At 5'3" you ideal BMI would be under 141 pounds. http://www.nhlbisupport.com/bmi/ You can key in your weight and height here. I would say 110 is good for the lower end. So between 110 and 140 is good. The answer is not based on age, so if you are the upper end of the range it is fine. I'm 55 too and was looking for specific BMI for our age ...and have not found them yet.
pls calculate yr BMI using yr height 51-55 is still normal pls check
body mass index (BMI) is a way to estimate how healthy your weight is given how tall you are. For adults (ages 20 and up for these purposes), it's calculated as follows: [(weight in pounds)/(height in inches)^2] X 703 For example: to calculate the BMI of an adult who is 5ft 2inches tall and weighs 115 pounds. First put the height into inches (5'2" = 62") then square that number (62^2 = 3844). Then divide the weight in pounds by the squared height from above (115/3844 = 0.0299). Then multiply that number by 703 (0.0299 x 703). So that person's BMI is 21. There are lots of free websites where you can type in your height and weight and get your BMI. Note that it's slightly different for kids and teens, where age and sex are taken into account.

It depends on your height, age has nothing to do with it. Go onto a BMI calculator online and enter your height and weight and it will tell you if you are a healthy weight. Eg if you are 5ft6 you should be between 8 1/2 and 11 stone
Define "fit"... BMI? Strength? Endurance? Speed? A 55 year old can certainly lower his BMI to whatever he wants. A 55 year old can also build muscle mass and strength if he is dedicated. A 55 year old can improve his endurance but will probably have trouble matching the natural ability of a younger man. A 55 year old will probably have trouble developing as much speed as a younger man.
