Is this an unhealthy weight?!


Question: Is this an unhealthy weight.?
I am 5ft7 in height and weigh 7st11 or 99lbs.

I don't think I look too thin and I eat healthily..have never had any eating disorders or major issues with food. I have noticed I have lost weight since becoming vegetarian but I haven't eaten meat for nearly 4 years.? I don't eat a lot when i'm stressed but this is just because it ruins my appetite!

My mum a some close friends are telling me that I look really unhealthy and way too thin..where as other friends say I look fine.
Just wondering is this really that unhealthy or is it okay.? I can't seem to put on weight and really I don't really want to..I work as a model and a lot of the girls I work with are actually a lot smaller than me.? Thanks in advance!

Answers:
Well it sounds like you don't weigh much for your height, but i guess you have a small bone structure or slim build anyway. I know it may seem a healthy image to you, but sometimes its hard to realise how you actually look yourself, so maybe you do look a little thin to others you just don't realise it. Because you've mentioned you had insomnia and now your tired all the time it sounds like it could be anaemia, due to lack of iron. i assume you have a very low BMi so it would probably be a good idea to go see a doctor and get some advice, as long as you are healthy it doesn't matter what size you are.

also I have heard that being vegetarian can be unhealthy sometimes because of missing out on the nutrients in meat and other foods, so it might be worth thinking about how to get them from something else, unless you already do.
Hope it turns out your fine, am sure you will be.Health Question & Answer

Your weight sounds fine considering your height, but i would consider going to the doctors about the insomnia (the tiredness is perhaps a symtom of the insomnia!) because they may be able to get to the root cause of your insomnia. Hope this helps! Get Well Soon!Health Question & Answer

i think you need to gain a little weight and have a check-up. 'coz your weight does not correspond to your height.Health Question & Answer

yes maam...i can't imagine what that must look like! Health Question & Answer

it is a VERY unhealthy weight. 99lbs is for a person who is 5'
a healthy weight for you is 130-150

its probably because you are vegetarian, but eat more carbs, like bread and rice(no taste,so add seasoning) soy and avocadoes, you need to seriously gain weight.

since the other girls are thinner than you then they are much more unhealthier than you. if you are going t gain weight at least make it muscle mass. gain some muscle to fill yourself out without making you look big, muscle looks very sexy

Edit: to the guy that said 99 lbs is fine for ur height. he/she is strange. its a really bad weight for your heightHealth Question & Answer
