- Underweight = <18.5
- Normal weight = 18.5-24.9
- Overweight = 25-29.9
- Obesity = BMI of 30 or greater
HOWEVER ... these numbers are very generic, because they don't take into account a number of other health-related factors such as muscle mass, fat distribution, waist-to-hip ratio, and so on. Many health professionals caution that BMI numbers are crude guides at best, and anyone who has health concerns should consult with their doctor before making lifestyle changes based solely on BMI.

What is the ideal weight for someone age 22 and 5 foot 4 inches tall?
I can't tell you the exact ideal weight, but I can give you a link to a site where you can calculate your BMI (body mass index)). On the page I'm giving you at the left hand side, it tells you BMI categories (from underweight to obese). You can use the BMI calculator to figure out your BMI from your height and weight, and then see whether your weight is ideal. Hope this helps: http://www.nhlbisupport.com/bmi/bmicalc.htm

There is no ideal weight. There is a range of healthy weights, and various ranges of unhealthy weights. Google "BMI" to get the ranges. However, it also depends on the muscularity of the person, so even the BMI ranges are not necessarily definitive (i.e. a body builder would likely have a high BMI, but is not considered "overweight").

To determine your ideal weight use the BMI calculator. These can be found online, but there is a simple equation to determining your own BMI. BMI stands for body mass index. This will give you a number to aim for so you are sure you are at a healthy weight for your current height. BMI = ((Your weight in pounds) / (Height in inches x Height in inches)) x 703 So, take your weight in pounds, divide that by your height in inches squared, and multiply your total by 703. This will give you a number, which is your BMI. A healthy BMI is between 18.5 and 24.9. If your BMI is below 18.5, you are underweight for your height. If your BMI is between 25 and 29.9 you are considered overweight. If your BMI is above 30, you are considered obese. BMI = (Weight in Pounds (Height in inches) x (Height in inches)) x 703
