Answers:
about 50 pounds!.

standart weight is 100 lbs at five feet tall, and add another 5 lbs for every inch over that!. You should weigh 140!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You really can't go by those online weight calculators, I used to wrestle in high school and I was in the best shape of my life, and I was still OBESE according to ALL online calculators!. All that matters is your body fat percentage, which should be around 20%!. It also depends upon what figure you have, there are three basic body types and it is genetic so you can't do much to change the body type you were born with!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

you could lose a little weight if you want to i advise you to drink green tea 1-3 glasses per day
green tea speeds up your metabolism
drink lots and lots of water 8 glasses each day!.
do not snack
do not eat 6 meals a day, try to only eat 3
if you are really hungry and you've had all your daily meals snack on fruits ( oranges, apples, bananas )
exercise more try and run for at least 30 minutes a day
get more active
get more sleep it prepares your body
stretch, yes it works and it doesn't just help you lose weight it helps with you're growing to make you a little taller
count your calories try to stay under the amount of 1300 calories per day
change you're lifestyle it makes a difference
do not eat candy or chips eat more greens or protein bars
avoid fast food and cut out fried food when you cook your meal oven cook your food do not fry it
chew gum because when you chew gum you do not pick at food for example if theres some chips in you're cupboard you go to them a think good damn they look good then you would say no i cant pick at them because i dont wanna throw my gum away
do not eat after 6pm because before 6pm you can burn all you're food off and if you eat after six it will lay on you're stomach as you eat!.
do not eat before you go to sleep
drink a glass of water before you go to sleep
eat spicy food, if you can because it speeds up you're metabolism
do not weigh you're self everyday because it torments you,weight you're self once a week ( every Monday )
good luck!
