My height is 5'4" and my weight is about 50. What should be my ideal weight? Whenever I gain a few pounds they are accumulated in the wrong areas (belly mostly). My cheeks are thinner and I want them to be chubby to give me a fresh look. I want to gain weight in the right areas. What should I do to achieve that?
