Answers:
For a 5'3" female 179 is very definitely overweight!. Being overweight is unhealthy!. It puts more stress on our joints and our heart!. It has to work harder when we exert ourselves!.
When I was growing up there were height/weight charts!. Most of them took into account your bone frame size (small, medium or large bones)!. I am about 5'3" to 5'4"!. They would put the weight range between 110 to 130 lbs!. If you work out a lot remember muscle weighs more than fat!. A muscular person may look the same size but weigh more than the unfit person!. However anyway you look at it 179lbs is at least 30- 40 lbs too much!.
Best way to lose weight is slow and steady!. It is a change of eating habits to better choices and portion control!. Then continue with the healthy changes!. That for me has always been the hardest!. Losing the weight was always somewhat easy!. The keeping it off is the hardest!. I would slip back to many of my old eating habits and would slowly gain the weight again!.
Good luck in your challenge!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
