This page will give you an idea of what your ideal body weight should be. Just check
your height (in feet and inches) against your gender and your bodies 'frame size'. There are
weight numbers that are considered 'normal' or 'healthy' levels for men and women. This is your
ideal body weight and the number range that you should fall into. This will give you an idea of
how much weight you need to lose.
Warning about ideal weight
Remember that this is just considered the average based on a certain number of people
judged by survey. You may not fall into these categories. Everyone is different and has a
different build, so don't get caught up in the idea that you must fall into these ranges.
If it seems reasonable to do it, by all means, try for these target weight goals. But don't ever
force yourself to reach a weight that seems very unlikely. It may not be healthy for you to be
at that weight. So use your best judgement and if you have serious questions, consult a medical
professional.
