What should be the ideal body weight for a woman of 26 years, married and of slightly big built (5 ft 4)?
Married for a year,no kids yet. Does having a baby affect weight?
- You should find out what your body fat percentage is. This will give you a better idea whether you have healthy levels of body fat or not. If you are large in build, I would probably estimate around 125lb-145lb would be a good weight, but having your body fat percentage tested would let you know for certain whether you are healthy or not.
HTH : )
- its nothing to do with your age but your height
for people your height the average weight should be 9-10 stones. - Somewhere around 130. Women gain weight during pregnancy, and usually don't lose all of it.
- You can look on line for calculators to get your BMI (body mass index) also check your body fat %. Should be low to mid 20's for women.
Just to estimate for women, Start at 5'0" and weight of 100-110 lbs. For every inch taller add 5 to10 lbs. This will give you a high and low weight average. So at 5'4" you should be between 120lbs to 140lbs.
Remember that muscle weighs more than fat. I am 32 yrs old, 5'4" and weigh 110lbs with a body fat of 16%. A bit thin according to my doctor, but I feel healthy.
