Hi Guys!

I was wondering is 157lbs the normal weight for a 16 y/o 5 ft 3 girl?

    Unless the person is extremely muscly then they are overweight at that height.

    put 'body mass index' into your search engine, and somewhere you'll be able to put in your height and weight, and it'll tell you whether it is underweight, normal, overweight, obese etc.

    hiya,
    i did what Tates said to do for you and it came up with a body mass index of 27.8....20-25 is healthy so that weight is overweight for that height...go check it out for yourself at http://www.bbc.co.uk/health/yourweight/bmi.shtml
