I'm the "Baby Bear" in Goldilocks!.!.!.!.you aren't too big and you aren't too small!.!.!.!.!.you're JUST right!!!! Especially if you're the mother of 2 and a school nurse!Www@Answer-Health@Com

weight is irrelevant!

Body composition is what is important you can be 150lbs and fat and out of shape or 150lbs lean and muscular!. Or somewhere inbetween!.

5lbs of lard or 5lbs of steak is still 5lbs but one is fat and one is muscle

You should not rely on what you weigh but what you look like and what your Body Comp is IE your Body Fat Percentage!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Based on the information you presented I have found that knowledge of BMI (body mass index) is important!. When I checked it for those two bits of information, it recorded that you are at an ideal weight!. However, that is not necessarily the entire picture without more information, it cannot arrive at a definate no!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Absolutely not!. That gives you a BMI of 23!.5 - which is in the healthy range (though at the high end of the range)!. BMI isn't the most reliable indicator of body fatness, but unless you're an athlete then it should give an idea!. Muscle weighs more than fat, so athletes are often misclassified!. Though I think if you were an athlete, then you wouldn't wonder if you were fat :P

Just go by how you feel!. Do you feel fat!? Would you like to lose a few pounds!? Or are you happy with how you are!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

No, I don't!. I'm 5'4 and a half or so and I feel good when I'm that weight!. If you are exercising and eating right I think 150 is just fine!. Remember even skinny people can be in bad shape as far as heart and lung health and muscle tone!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

try this ideal weight calculator, based on age, gender and height!. It gives you the per cent of people heavier than you, too!. And shows you how you compare to others:

No, that makes you 10!.5 stone and for your height that is about right!. I am 5'2" and my ideal weight according to the Dr is 9!.2 stone!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

no not usually, but it could also depend on where most of that poundage is stored!.!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

No, you could still be a plus size model at that height weight combo!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Not at all!. You are tall enough to carry the 150 pounds!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
