| Height / Weight Charts New statistics have showed that despite a few more pounds, individuals were not dying earlier. The new charts reflect the weights of people that lived the longest in each height category; they are not ideal weight tables. Some health educators recommend lower weight ranges than those specified here. But, if you have chased a few pounds for years that put you over "ideal body weight", relax. The new charts show that those few pounds will probably not increase your mortality. HEIGHT & WEIGHT TABLE FOR WOMEN Weights at ages 25-59 based on lowest mortality.
