I believe that normal adult leos are between 50 to 90 grams.

>>I believe that normal adult leos are between 50 to 90 grams.

My female is about 9.5 inches long and was 59 grams last we weighed her on a scale that is supposedly accurate to within 1 gram. To my knowledge, she's a 'normal' as far as size is concerned. Her tail is plump, but not grossly fat.

To my knowledge, Giants are in the range of 90-120grams. Super Giants are over 120grams.

Normals grow to about the 60 gram range. I would consider anything from the 50-65 gram range to be healthy for a full grown adult normal. Giants usually grow to about 80 grams by their first birthday and can reach above 100grams. Super giants are even larger, they will grow to above the 120 gram range. The largest is Moose, who is in the 150 gram range. I would personally consider Moose to be a little over weight though myself...

Ok, well here is my biggest gecko, I dont think she is a year old yet, but honestly not sure. She is somewhere between 9 and 10 inches. Last weight was 76 grams. She is the reason for my questions. Let me know what you guys think, and thanks for the replies and help.

Thats her at the top. The other female on the bottom is 10 months.

looks giant to me. My nonalbino giant female is 82 grams right now and was a 9-20something-05 hatchling. So basically shes 1 year old and 82 grams. I got her from VMSherp. Then my carrot head albino giant is 69grams right now. She came from brightalbino and was hatched in march of this year. She went from 20 grams to 40 grams almost overnight and from 55 grams on the growth has been kinda slower. If I didnt know that her mother wasnt a giant I would think her to be a possible super giant...

Heres a blury pic from when the hypo was 70ish grams and the albino was 55 grams:
