    I'd have to say 98 is WAAAAY too low. I'm 5'4 and my goal weight is 125. I agree with everyone else, try strength training, and eating some more calories to get the body shape you want.

    Totally off topic, but I'm 5'4" and that's my goal too! :-)

    i think a person about 5'2" if they had my build (small-medium) would look best around 105-110 lbs. there is a formula that is an older formula but tends to be pretty accurate for small build... take 5 feet, base of 100 lbs... for every inch over 5 feet, add 5 lb. so 5'1" is 105 lbs... 5'2" is 110 lbs... any less than that probably would look kind of frail. i agree with the others who suggested body building... if your lean mass was higher and you had a low bf% you could weigh more and it would look great on you.
