and it cant be 120 lbs or under cos i was 110 lbs and was fine! lol so im thinking WAYYY below 100


Answers:

At 90 lbs, 5'7, bmi would be 14.1. At 89 lbs, bmi would be 13.9. At 14.0 bmi, that's when the serious health problems can begin. At bmi 15, the body becomes emaciated. At 70 lbs, bmi would be 11.0, the point of death. I hope this answers your question.
