I'm average BMI. I'm 5'7 and weigh just under 10 stone.

So i'm guessing what? Between 9 and 9 and a half?

No the range is bigger than that

110 to 145 pounds is about right

i love threads like this - Average no idea. (probably higher than what i'm going to suggest due to high levels of overweightness etc in this country) Healthy in terms of the dodgy BMI - aim for anywhere between the fantastic range of 55kg and 68kg. so thats around 8st 10 to around 10st 10.

Just get to a weight you feel comfortable with.

Im 5ft7 and i weigh 8st4. I think that means im underweight but not badly.... that what doc says anyway. So yeah just over 8 stone.

5ft 5 - about 8 stones.

About 8 stone? What a load of rubbish. And people wonder why eating disorders are on the increase!

At 5"5, a healthy weight is, as ~Kirsty~ stated, between 8 and a half to 10 and a half.

I weigh 9 stone 10, and am 5"5. I'm nowhere NEAR fat.

What?!

Oh. Yeah. For a girl maybe...

I'm 5ft 5 and weigh about 60kg which is 9.5 stone...and I'm certainly not overweight, actually I think the doctor said I was underweight...

No, not even for a girl. It angers me when people post things like that as if it is gospel; the amount of girls who might read this and start feeling bad about their weight scares me.
