Also, you can check pretty easily if she is overweight - when viewed from above, you should see a "pinched" waist between her ribs and hips. Two other methods: when viewed from the side, her tummy should be higher than her ribs. Finally, if you run your hand along her side, you should be able to feel her ribs (you may have to press a teensy bit if she is furry).
I would go by body shape rather than weight. And your vet should be able to tell you too.
