What is the ideal weight for a 23 year old female that is 5'7?

Answer 1

Theoretically, the ideal BMI for adults of any height is 25 or below. For a person who is 5 feet 7.5 inches tall, this would mean the "ideal" weight of no more than 162 pounds.

However, you need to consider more than just weight and height when you determine a person's health status. Someone with a bigger frame may require more weight to be healthy; someone with a tiny frame may require less weight.

Answer 2

According the a BMI calculator I found online, anywhere between 122lb to 160lb.

In my opinion, it isn't about weight but rather body fat percentage. You can be at a healthy weight but have no muscle and a lot of fat.

Answer 3

It doesn't only depend on age and height, but also water retention, body type (athletic or standard) and amount of muscle you have.

Answer 4

Your ideal weight should be no less that 118 pounds and no more that 155 pounds. What matters is that you are comfortable with yourself....

Answer 5

Based on having a BMI from 19-25, the ideal healthy weight for that description would be between 121-160 lbs.

Answer 6

According to the guide provided by Alli, a woman that is 5'7, no matter what age, should weigh 172lbs, but I say make sure your weight is for your particular body type :)

Answer 7

A healthy weight would be 118-159 pounds. But, if you want to be slender, I suggest being around 120-130.

Answer 8

Men: 67.6 - 72.6 kgs Women: 64.0 - 68.5 kgs However if your body fat percentage is below 10 % then you can weight more
