No minimum weight requirements. However as a cadet you'll need to follow grooming requirements. I think for you the best way to get information would be to go visit either a cadet or a composite squadron and talk with the leaders and other cadets there. They can better guide you on what you'll need to do, plus you can see what you'll be getting into. There is no obligation to join and you can visit as many squadrons as you like to see which one fits you best.

There is a unit locator on the CAP website, I would suggest starting there. http://cap.findlocation.com/

Best of luck.

The reason I'm joining CAP is because one of my friends got me into it, since I like the Army and stuff like that...

That was highly uncalled for, especially for a Cadet... who hasn't served in any branch, let alone the Army.

The weight guidelines are for the top of the scale. If you are below the listed weight, don't worry about it.

I think there should be minimum weight requirements.

Well, in your 13 posts, you've made no mention of your gender, and your height of 5'2" might (unfairly, I might add) lead someone to believe that you could be a female.

Also, after a second look, he didn't say "ma'am, he said "ma' man" [space added to clarify].
