I don't think so....
I'm 5'4" and 115 pounds. Except I'm told that I don't look that much. When I was 4'11" I think I was around 98 pounds. I was also pre-puberty so that had a lot to do with it. I wouldn't worry. Your weight seems normal. |

You're freaking out about 107lbs? Here are some basics to knowing you're overweight:
1.) Do you have two chins? 2.) Do people think you're pregnant? 3.) Your elbows resemble PacMan? 4.) Do you wear pants that zip? 5.) Is exercise a foreign word? |

Use the mirror, not the scale.

BMI is garbage. And the excuse people use to defend it is, "Not everyone is a bodybuilder like you."
No, but everyone has muscle mass, which is denser, and therefore, more of a factor, than adipose tissue. |

No. I think it's more about your measurements than what the scale says. A lot of people don't think I'm as fat as I really am, haha. I think you're probably just going through that phase of accepting yourself.

But also just because you're skinny, it doenst mean your healthy. Even skinny people get huffy going up a flight of stairs. You also shouldn't look to other people to accept you if you dont even accept yourself =\ If you don't love who you are, how can anyone else?

But just like skinny skank has the right to wear practically nothing, so does the fat girl. It doesnt matte how one looks but how confident they feel in their own skin and how they look. |
