Numbers aren't my strong suit, but...

"Once you've got the approximate number of calories you need to maintain your current body weight, you need to determine if you are overweight, underweight, or at your ideal weight. For a woman, ideal body weight is calculated at 100 pounds up to 5' tall, with an additional 5 pounds added per every inch above 5'."

Am I nuts or is that telling me I should weigh 100 pounds? Is that... even possible for a grown woman? I think the last time I bothered looking at anything that suggested an ideal weight for my age and height and all, it was like 120-130. I'm not sure how I feel about this 100 pounds thing.
