    If you're the size of a fun size Snickers you've probably gone too far.

    you should probably figure out your bmi and see how much you should weigh for your height :smile:
    here's the website I used to figure out mines => http://www.nhlbi.nih.gov/guidelines/obesity/BMI/bmicalc.htm

    BMI doesn't work for me. I go by body fat% or for a certain look. You have to decide for yourself what's healthy and looks good.

    Agree with this , if I went by the BMI chart for my height people would think I was dying I don't have the build to weigh what the chart says I should .

    BMI is kinda worthless IMO.

    Get a scale that tells you weight, body fat, body fat %, water weight and then compare it with a body % scale to see where you "should" be.

    That's what I go for.
