Ideal weight??

Does anyone know what the ideal weight is for a woman of 5'7' or at least a range?

I don't go by what the charts say because if I weighed what they said,I would be very heavy.
Each person is different.Everyone has a different frame and shape.

According to weight watchers:

minimum for all adults=127
maximum for ages up to 25yrs=147
ages 25-45yrs=153
45+=159

My philosophy is not to go by that crap!

ESPECIALLY, if you work out.. muscle weighs more than fat and those figures aren't based on body types or density,

I agree! I've been working out for the last 3 months and gained weight!! Ok, so I haven't been eating less but still!!!!
Ideal weight is really just a guide - what matters is how healthy you are. You could be the perfect weight and be unhealthy.

I go by the way I feel, not by what the scale says.

a range is good for a guide...

I'm aslo 5'7' and I think the ww range is perfect...

when I have hit 150 I start feeling a little plump when I am in the 130's I feel perfect...so I think under 127 would be thin...but some people are thin naturally...
