    According to the chart thing here is what i should be:
    Based on the Robinson formula (1983), your ideal weight is 111.8 lbs
    Based on the Miller formula (1983), your ideal weight is 120.1 lbs
    Based on the Devine formula (1974), your ideal weight is 105.4 lbs
    Based on the Hamwi formula (1964), your ideal weight is 105.2 lbs
    Based on the healthy BMI recommendation, your recommended weight is 97.9 lbs - 132.3 lbs

    I am 5'1 and 29 years old. I currently weight 189. I dont think being 105 is reasonable at all! I think i would look sickly, but that's probably because i've been at least slightly overweight my whole life. My goal is 130ish. I started at 199. I know even at 130 i will look thick etc but I don't know that anything below that would actually be something i would want. Guess we will see when i get there :)

    105 is perfectly reasonable.

    I'm 4'11. I weigh 170. I'm trying low carb diet. I know I need to eat more than I am. I lost 2 pounds in 5 dsys. I would be happy at 120. Of course would love to 110. For me it all seems impossible

    I"m 5'3.5" and I currently weight 167lbs after having lost 47lbs. My original goal is 140lbs...because as an adult I have never even been close to that. I might reconsider when I get there because as it seems my goal is too high comparative to others at my height. I have always been on the muscular side and I have been strength training since Nov. 2014...but I still have some fat to go. I would like to hit my goal by end of summer but I feel amazing compared to how I felt last year this time....plus I'm trying to be happy regardless of how much I weight. So far it's working just feeling healthier.
