    I'm 5'9 and currently about 145. I am in my healthy range but would like to be on the lower side of it. More like 130...if I got any lower Id look sick.
    On the other hand my best friend is 5'6 and 102. She is very thin but doesn't look unhealthy at all.
    It all depends on your body type...even though I'd imagine that staying in the healthy BMI range is best.

    ps- guys like like curvy women make me happy! who wants to date a pencil?

    5'6" 102, wow, that's pretty small, that's a BMI of 16.5. She can't have much muscle at that weight. How does she open pickle jars? :tongue:

    She is very small. Her body is just so tiny, she's very compact. She says she's 5'6, she may be a little shorter...

    pickle jar?...good question.

    Hi everyone!

    I have never posted a message before, I have just recently started coming on this website. I joined out of curiousity to see how many calories I eat and burn in a day. I am currently 24 years old, 5'4", and 104 lbs. According to the BMI I am considered underweight. I have a very small frame and eat perfectly healthy. Actually, people always find it hard to believe that I eat so much and stay so small. My doctor has no concerns either. I'm not saying that some of these extremely small women in show buisness aren't starving themselves, but, on the other hand, not all small people are unhealthy. It's sometimes just natural.

    I don't mean to be offensive but if you're already considered underweight then why on your profile does it say that you are trying to lose 4 pounds, surely that's not healthy?!


    I know. I don't know how to change it. I was just playing with the website and now I don't know how to change that part.

    You can do the same experiment with watching early reruns of "Friends" compared to later ones. Jennifer Anniston looks normal in the early ones, and then gets skinnier and skinnier as time goes on.

    TOTALLY agree! jennifer anniston looks completely different as time goes on.

    you just go to your goals section, there is a button to change goals, and then you can make your goal weight equal to your current
