Well no one really answered but through A LOT (lol) of research I've found out that you have to double the ideal weight of your height and frame on the high side. For example I'm 5' 3" with a small frame so I have to weight 248 or more (the link of the met life chart is in the bottom). I've been trying to put on some pounds and I am at 242 now still 6 more pounds to go. You think in would be easy but I think I reached some kind of reversed plateau. I hope this helped.
