According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, the average U.S. woman is 5' 3.7 (162 centimeters) tall and weighs 152 pounds (69 kilograms). BMI is 26.2.

I'm almost 5'5" and weigh 156, so I guess I can blend in in a crowd-- but since it's an average, maybe I am still a shade heavy. Who knows?

Your new picture is AMAZING!

I would say you are a shade below "average" considering you are a little over an inch taller than the average person. 

I am still quite far from average (5'8 and 280 lbs) but I hope to get there one day.  :)

Hello! I haven't heard from you in a while and was wondering how you're doing! I'm hosting for Gina tomorrow night. I'd love to hear from you!

How's the business going?

Miss you!

 The average woman is that short?  Geez!  Im 5'8", 161...which puts me at 24.5 BMI.  I still dont feel 'normal' though.  Hopefully my brain starts catching up soon.

I'm in the same boat as you!  5' 8.5", 160.  I don't feel normal at all!  Keep looking in the mirror every morning hoping to see that "normal" person, but it hasn't happened yet.  LOL

You look fantastic... and I love the new hairdo! With that look, you'd never blend into a crowd.

Let me throw in a mans perspective:

A woman should never be judged by the dimensions of her body but valued for the size of her heart.

PS You look great!

I'm not average either, I'm 5'2" (shorter than average then) but weigh 181 so I'm still overweight.

Taller than average @ 5' 6".
Lighter than average @ 138-141 lbs. and 22.4-22.9 BMI.

And, I'm pretty sure that I do blend into the crowd...or at least I hope I do. But, it would be hard for you to blend in with that newly beautified face you're sporting.
