| Small to medium build. I guess what I'm wondering is, what would you call a good weigt and what would be an ideal weight? I have reached what I thought was my ideal, but I look awful. So I'm wonderingn iffy ideal is higher than it should be! |

There is no one way to answer this, and your height/age/weight can show differently on different builds. Check out the Body Gallery to compare.

150 is slightly overweight, based on the BMI. 110 at the extreme low end, and 140 at the high end is optimal.
below 115, I would worry about anorexia -- but apparently anorexia is normal on the forums. |

That is not huge  But I d think that 130 to 140 would be better.
115-120 is too thin in my opinion. |

| I'm 5' 5 and look straight-up anorexic under 125. My look best at 130/135 that is maintained through exercise and not starvation, but it all depends on how your body distributes the weight. Exercise, eat right, be strong and healthy and feel good about yourself. |

I weigh 130.
That is a fascinating site that one of the pps posted! I look NOTHING like those women who also claim to be my height and weight! But then I put in 140 to see and I suppose I look similar to most of them. I wonder if childbirth "adds ten pounds" like a camera 
I think id look a lot better if I could lose ten pounds! |

At that age and height, I weighed 125 and looked and felt great.
Add 20 years and xx pounds, and I don't feel and look great anymore.

| Everyone is different but I think 115 would be very, very thin. I'm 5'4 and when I was 125 pounds people thought I was very thin. |
