I hope that was sarcasam or something. My wife is 5'4 or 5'5", I'm not sure exactly. But she's quite thin at around 105 - 110lbs, something like 6 to 8% body fat. She's got a naturally tall and thin build to her. But we've both been told that she really needs to put on weight just to be healthy.

There are millions of women on the planet from height ranges of 5ft 4in thru 5ft 7in that would be unhealthy at under 125 pounds.

125 on a small framed, small chested woman of up to 5ft 6in is great... but for those that are bigger built, wider hipped and larger breasted... well, to make a blanket statement that they should never be over 125 is just unreasonable.
 
My girl is about 5'7" and 135lbs. I would describe her as curvy; in no way would I consider her fat.

No offense, but thats rediculous to say that every woman out there should be that weight. Every womans body is different.
