    Ok. Let's see : 5'5 = 165 cm.

    Based on your length of 165 cm :
    Maximum weight in the classification healthy = 69 Kilograms
    Maximum weight slightly overweight = 83 Kilograms
    Maximum weight obesitas = 108 Kilograms
    Maximum weight morbid obesitas = everything above 108 kilograms.

    138-141 pounds (1 pound = 0,45 kilograms) = 62.1 - 63.5 kilograms.
    So you fall in the classification healthy.

    Congratulations !!!

    :)
