5'6 112lbs ?

hi im a recovering anorexic and i was just wondering what is the right weight for a 15 year old 5'6.5 girl ? Also if theres any other recovering anorexics i really like to talk to u for help

your bmi is 17.8 and 18.5 and under is underweight so you're pretty underweight. if you gained up to 120 lbs you'd be 19.1 which is still pretty slender, but healthy. i'm 15 too so i know how the need to be thin is pretty overpowering so, get to 120-122 and see how you feel. if you get to 120 and want to gain more, by all means go for it.

i worked out from the BMI tool that for someone of your height age and weight you need to be at the very least 124lbs to get a BMI of twenty and so be at a healthy weight

- hope that helps x 

I'm glad you are recovering. If you're going to look at BMI you have to use one for kids, not adults. I used two BMI calculators for kids online and see you are at a healthy weight right now. Just Google "bmi calculator children" and use one of those that comes up. Sorry, I don't think of you as a "child" not at 15, but such is life.... Remember, as time goes on and you get older you will need to gain some more weight to stay at a healthy BMI :) Here's a link.

Hi, im 15 too, and im 5'6' and 112lbs. I think its pretty normal. I was 120lbs,and it wasnt my intention to lose weight but i went to some volley camp and i didint eat anything... anyway, i think that u shud gain maybe 2-3lbs more because anorexics, also it depands on ur structure, coz if u have more musles u shud have more weight and if u have lighter bones and not much muscles than less. Maybe u cud ask for doctors opinion.

Take care!
