Thin, average or somewhere in between?!


Question: Thin, average or somewhere in between?
I am 5'6/5'7 and weigh about 117/118 pounds.

Answers:

At 5'6.5 and 117.5lbs, your BMI is 18.7 which is normal but not average as the average would be overweight (if you live in the US where 70% of people are overweight or obese).

You would need to weigh 157lbs to get into the overweight category, the average one.

It depends on your bone size, if you have big bones you should weigh around 140-144 if you have small bones you should weigh around 128-132 for your height



more on the thin side than the average side. check your BMI online (search "BMI calculator") It will tell you what range you're in
