Ok everyone, I have a question. What constitutes a few extra pounds? Apparently I do not know. I would think that if you are 5'2" tall and weigh 225 pounds, that would not be considered a few extra pounds. Am I right, or wrong?

225 lbs at 5' 2"?
More than a few extra by any standards.
I don't know how people determine it; usually the recommended weight range for 5' 7" is 140 to 163 so if one weighed about 7 to 15 pounds above the top of the scale I think one could say 'a few extra pounds'.
