My mom is on me all of the time about eating because I have had a past of Anorexia Nervosa. My weight is dropping and she suspects that I'm up to no good again (which is not true!). I want to show her that I can still be the weight I am and not be medically considered underweight.I am 5'2.5" and weigh 105 pounds. That puts my BMI at around 19.What weight would put me at medically underweight? (Because right now I am at average weight.)**READ PLEASE: I do not have Anorexia Nervosa and am not planning on doing anything with the information I receive besides showing my mother. This is not encouraging any form of eating disorder. I'm just curious and trying to prove a point. Thanks!(:
How to Lose Weight After 50
Recommended Answer:
From my experience, you're on the very, very low side of a healthy weight for your height. 102 pounds would make you underweight, so you're almost there.. What are you doing that your weight is dropping? You shouldn't be losing, if anything, you could definitely gain a few pounds. I can't help you with much more because I don't know how you're eating now, but just be careful.
Other Answers:
- your weights normal
- The target weight for your height is 127 pounds. 85% of that is 108 pounds.You are indeed underweight.Please talk to your care team rather than insisting that you do not have an ED.
