I agree this is a stupid question, but before the weight ranges, the rule of thumb for ideal weight was 100 lbs for 5', then add 5 lbs for each inch. So at 5'5" it would be 125.

Bones are not that different for same height women. How many times is a difference of less than 1/4 inch or even less going to be brought up?! Bone density can make a difference, and bone density is heavier in heavy people. As well as people going on and on about cholesterol.... you can have normal blood tests but your arteries can be as clogged as a garbage disposal that has been broken for a year and you didn't realize.
