i no this sounds like the shallowest poll in the world, and im really now a shallow person, but its hard 2 no when u ask ur friends or somethin cuz of course they're gonna say no. plz b honest!!!

I can't honestly judge you from here. I need to see a picture or something. Just because you way so-and-so pounds doesn't necessarily mean you're fat. It mainly depends if you're bigboned or whatnot. (:

[*stephinika*]

probably not...check your BMI. that's the scale to know if you are physically and unhealthily fat...

[cheri_pi]

thnx
i checked my BMI online at a kids site thing-- it said i was 89.something percentile. YIKES!!! Wow... i excersize daily (running and situps) and i eat well- i snack sometimes but i eat healthy foods... i dont understand it!!!

[imm]

Yea this is what I was thinking, I seem to exercise, lift weights, eat healthier and drink a ton of water these days yet I'm gaining weight, go figure, I'm learning not to look at the "number" but rather your apperance, it's ok to have muscles and a little shape .

[cheri_pi]

thnx Xprezsion-- kewl name 2

[Looow]

yeah i agree

[cheri_pi]

got a 24 BMI- that's just barely 'normal', if it was 25 i'd b obese

[MellissaMoJo]

ummm, r u happy?? r u healthy?? well then personally i think it shouldnt matter if ur skinny or fat, ive seen some of the skinnest people in the world be sooo unhappy that its pathetic and ive seen the same for bigger people.... u know, u only get one shot at this life, just live it to the fullest n know that 100 years from now, its prolly not gonna matter what u weighed in 2005....hope that helps!

[ikayto]

look at the chart

http://www.annecollins.com/weight-loss/weight-chart.htm

if you're overweight, lose it; it's unhealthy

[shortiiex]

i have about a 18.2 BMI and you are normal

[iheartsimba]

as long as you eat healthy, and excersize i think your fine.

but you can check your bmi here to see what catagory you fall in.

i just checked it..and your bmi is 24. you fall into the normal catagory. your fine.

[Wishful_Dream]

Be happy. =) You are in normal i think.. =/ at least your not underweight.. gah... i have 17.2 or something bmi.. ><" i have an eating disorder.. i can never finish my breakfast/lunch/dinner.. ><" i dunno what's wrong wif me tho.. maybe im just like that or maybe i hate the food too much =.="

[sweetxsimplicity]

You can ask your doctor or look online and see what the average weight is for your age group.

[roberts_pink_dru...]

Oh no! I'm 25 BMI I'm going to die! What shall I do? I hate it when people act like that.

[lilJdawg]

No, i don't think your fat. If you excerise & eat healthy daily then, i guess your skinny which means your not fat.

[sandy_lumpy_shor...]

maybe it's muscle...

[hpsm2]

as long as you eat healthy, and excersize i think your fine.

i just checked it..and your bmi is 24. you fall into the normal catagory. your fine.

omgsh! A few seconds ago, I thought I was fat! But now, I realize I'm normal=) My mom did say it looked like I gained my cheek fat... oh well, I don't have to worry anymore=)

[lovescream]

Are you chubby in the stomach?

[heyisti]

when U see ur belly hanging out off ur jeans

[literemix24]

i dunn dink you're fat. It could be because of the muscles or your bones. Muscle do make up some part of your weight.

[misoshiru]

check your bmi.

[xGlovex]

[cheri_pi]

I don`t think ur supposed to look at the weight for your age cus everybody is just different ;; some are tall, some are short. just look at ur BMI and check if youre on the normal side

[Shattered_Hope]

You're not fat.

[Heewee]

If you have a healthy diet, get the right amount of excerise, and have a healthy lifestyle that wouldn't contribute to you having some extra weight on you, I wouldn't be worried about it. Depending on your age and your genes, you very well could have a major growth spurt in the next few years and everything will even out. If you are still worried, you can search Google and easily find a BMI calculator and a growth chart.

[*salcha*]

hey, could be muscle.
all my muscle from working out gained me an extra 10 pounds o.O

[broadway-aholic]

OK first of all fat and overweight are very, very different things. second of all it really depends on your age but 115 is not a lot.
