[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think at 5’6” 125-140 would be ideal range.

Some of these answers are wild.  I’m 5’5” 125 (41) and I think I look pretty good.  I actually get a lot of comments about my thinness. I have a small frame and am pretty athletic.  However, if I get closer to 120 yes I do look too thin.  I cannot imagine even small framed individual saying being 115 at 5’6” is a good look on a middle aged woman. [/quote]

I think it is hard for people to understand the reality of other people's body. At 130 I have a double chin (i am not inventing this). But i really have a different frame, if you think of ethiopian/Kenyan's very narrow runner bodies and bone structure, that's a bit what i look like.

I wear kid size hats and my knees are almost half the width of my thin athletic Northern european stock friends. We sat down a couple days ago and just noticed that. No weight gain would change that.

So yes i look better at 115 and 5'6" but that's just me. I do not think the average woman looks good at that weight.[/quote]
