> Those models have to be "at least" 123 pounds at 5'9", so there's a little comfort...
I saw that but realized that it might be in there for ethical reasons. The actual weight might still be less.
> For what it's worth, I used to be 5'9" -- thank you, osteopenia and injuries -- and so I can tell you that 123 is the cut off line for AN. If you're less than that, you're under the magic 85% of normal. Kinda ironic that they're talking about "healthier" models, huh?
My thoughts exactly. I, too, have the height to model but not the weight. :-( I'm much too old for the runway anyway.
