[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I lost a bunch of weight at one point and the "ideal weight" was obvious--down to a certain point, I felt and looked better and stronger. But once I got to the "ideal" point, any time I dropped below it, people would ask if I was sick. It was the line between "fit/trim" and "too thin". It is probably coincidence, but for me it was right around 120-122, and I am 5'4", so in line with the rule of thumb cited above. [/quote] This. I'd start looking gaunt. I'd start losing weight in my face and people would express concern. I also got sick more often. I'm 5'9", and 140-145 is where I usually sit with minimal effort. I can work to get down to 135, but below that, I don't look or feel as good. So, I guess that's the rule of thumb as well. (100 pounds + 5 pounds for every inch over 5 feet). [/quote]
