Based on your height and weight, your Body Mass Index (BMI) is 17.7 which indicate that you are underweight. Depending on your activity level and gender, your daily caloric requirement to maintain your current weight is between 1600 to 2200 calories a day. Additional calories may be needed if you wish to gain weight. Below are some helpful links.
