Should a 6’0 woman and a 5’9 woman weigh the same?

[Anonymous]

I mean tall women should weigh more than short petite ladies right? I mean both a 6’0 woman and 5’9” woman can weigh the same. They’re only a three once difference. I’m 6’0” tall so that’s why I’m asking. Someone said I should weigh more than my 5’9 cousin.

6’0” woman normal weight: 144lbs - 176lbs (it always changes)

5’9” woman normal weight: 131lbs - 160lbs

never compare weight

it doesn't trigger you and you focus on yourself. comparing yourself with others is the thief of joy or however the fuck that quote goes lol

It depends on the body constitution. I'm 5'11 but I weigh less than I show. are you like me or the opposite?

If you guys are both in your weight ranges and still weigh the same then it's untrue

[teamvic]

Wait. No I read that wrong

If you guys are both in your weight range, and weight the same. Then sure. If one or both aren't in their range. Then that's fake news

I'm confused now

It depends upon several factors. Someone who is athletic will have more muscle mass and more weight per volume than another person who is flabby.

It doesn't matter. But the BMI "normal" ranges are not very useful.

Why not?

[morganherrel]

Someone can be healthy but underweight. Someone could benefit from losing weight even though they are technically in the "normal range."

What really matters is your blood work data and whether you're eating adequate nutrition from a balanced diet. If you are healthy by those metrics, then you can be very thin and yet still very healthy.

Also keep in mind that BMI fails to take into account the width of your frame, the nonlinearity of ideal fat mass with respect to height, your muscle mass, etc. Some people need to reach lower BMI for the same health or body fat percentage.
