Try using this calculator. You can get your healthy weight, BMI, required calories and more:

are u male or female?

i guess u r a male..

if so...

According to your height of 5' 4" your ideal healthy weight is 130 pounds. Your recommended weight range is between 116 and 145 pounds.

Healthy weight based on BMI is around 115-150 (I know because I am the same height)

115 lbs to 130 lbs would be okay. on the calorie intake, that depends really on how much and the kinds of activities you make a day. the more activities you make and the more strenuous they are, would mean more calories you should take in. an average guy your size would need a 2000 calorie per day but if you do a lot of physical activities, then you need more calories. i used to play competetive basketball and i practice around 3-5 hours a day. since i stopped, i lessened my calorie intake.

hope this helps!
