Ideal Weight

Does anyone know where i can find a good chart about ideal weight for my height? I've seen all sorts of charts that say i should weigh 130 but to me i don't think i could ever maintain a weight that low. Right now i weigh 280 and i'm 5'7".

Thanks,

Annabella

290/280/???

Ladies, I noticed one problem with the site, and that is it didn't account for gender.

Hi Annabella, i'm glad the site helped a lil. I am a believer that we know our body better then the charts so i just use them as a guideline. I will know when i get closer what my goal weight should be...good luck and have a great week!
