Goal question

Is 104lbs for a 16 year old girl at 5'1 an unrealistic goal?
Note, this isn't for me, it's my friend's ultimate goal for herself, just wondering what you guys think.

    As a mother to a daughter, I'd like to imagine a 16-year-old girl isn't worried about hitting a particular (low) weight.

    But in general, 104 isn't too low for someone 5'1", as long as it's achieved healthfully.

    She's totally healthy no worries about that, but I totally understand your concern :)
    Thanks!

    I think it would be better to set a body fat percent goal; just setting a weight number generally isn't a good idea.
