Am i really that fat???

You are kinda fat for only being 5 inches tall.....

Just eat healthy food and excercise you will soon hit a balanced weight for your height and build, people who go on mad diets usually put the weight back on as fast as they lost it.

you're not fat, at most, you're chubby. Chillax, you have no need to put off weight (it doesn't mean to go porky at Mickey D's), you're just fine. :)

You could maybe lost a couple..but nothing more than 10 lbs, because you're fine. :) But 500 calories a day isn't enough..you should stick to 1000-1500 calories a day at the most, that's what I do. =]

Your weight isn't as important as your body composition if you are higher than 15% fat you should exercise more and eat balanced diet. For all I know ur jacked full of muscle so check your body fat and work off of that. Don't drop below 10% women often start having trouble with irregular menstrual cycles and can become infertile.

I think ur fine.

5 inches of fat i love america.

If you starve yourself, you'll just trigger you're body to prepare for starvation when you're done "dieting". Translation: Getting fat...

For some reason i thought you said you were 5 years old, but i looked at it again and it said 5" so im like oh ok:) but ur fine!!:) ur not fat:) dontworry!:)

I have no idea what to say im 5'0 and no matter how much i eat i stay stuck weighing 100 >_<

Do you look good? Are you healthy? Then you're fine. The "national standards" don't take body shape into account. I'm 5'9 and 175lbs, but at 36DD chest me being smaller would make me look like a freak. I have an hourglass figure and I look damn good in anything I wear. Yet I'm "overweight".

I'm more healthy at my last check up than my 5'4 108lb friend who has high blood pressure, high bad cholesterol and low good cholesterol.

The health standards are hardly standard.

you worry about your appearances too much.

need to lose 22 pounds and then you would look normal

you are not fat. lose 5 lbs and you will be right in the standard weight guidelines. i'm 5' too so i know.

P.S. I recommend taebo. Start with the basic, 1 hour - 3 times a week for the first 2 or 3 weeks, then move up to the Half an hour workout, 3 times a week. I never moved up to the advanced workout (8 mins). You will see results, and its lots of fun, and I'm not afraid to walk home alone in the dark anymore :D

Dieting is bad unless its a well balanced diet that you plan to be on permanently. I eat anything I want, in moderation.

I'm 5'7 - and I personally think I'm grossly skinny/anorexic looking at 150 lbs. There is such a thing as big boned, and muscle weighs more than fat. I try to maintain my weight at about 160-165 which by all doctor charts is "overweight", but my stomach is flat and I look good naked, and every doctor I've ever seen agrees I'm healthy. If I don't dress properly, I look fat. Hasn't affected my life or my dating scene. Plenty of GORGEOUS guys like a little cushion for the pushin ;D Some were even upset to find I wasn't as heavy as I looked and told me to eat more :X

i am 5'10 and i weigh 120 lbs....
so yes, loosing some weight wont do you any harm :)

You are overweight for your height.

sometimes we feel fat

why are u so obsessed? u seem pretty thin to me. how much is that in kilos?

Dude its cool, im the exact same way. Im obsessed with my weight im always dieting and excercising. but then again i lovvvvee food. I dont think your fat, just accept ur body.

You are FAT.

Go on a *low-carbohydrate* diet. Stay away from the low-calorie diets--they don't work in the long term.

eh, im 5'6 and weigh like 130-something. so maybe you you should lose a little more,just cause youre shorter you know? cause i feel fat..

fat but i sure s hell dont care if it makes you feel better

u r not fat im 160 lbs datz fat

It's nothing to feel bad about. You may not be as skinny as all your friends, but that doesn't mean you should torment yourself. Everybody has a different build, some people are inclined to weigh more, that doesn't mean they're unattractive or unhealthy.
Stop focusing on it. Aiming to lose weight is fine, but don't fixate on it and let it get in the way of your social life. I weigh 140 and I'm 5'5.

115-130 would be a really nice weight and it would save your body on health issues down the line, especially joint pain. The thing is that fat is a LOT less dense than muscle- five or so pounds of fat is about double the size of five or so pounds of muscle- or more.

Well people judge themselves much worse than other people judge them. I'm 5'3 and 115 and I look at myself and think I'm disgusting but nobody else thinks that. Try looking in the mirror and pretending you're a different person looking at you, it kind of helps. Other people don't think you're as gross as you think you are. And if you're concerned about it, because that is unhealthy, start eating better and limit yourself to 2000 calories a day. And exercise is KEY. Get rid of more calories per day than you intake. Exercise makes you feel great too. More confident and happier and in a better mood in general. Good luck to you!

A bit chubby, yes- but not fat. I have been 135 lbs once and everyone thought I looked a tad chubby. I am 5'5, you are only 5'. If I had my same frame and were 5 inches shorter and weighted that much... I would be quite chubby. But I'm tiny. My grandma was 5'5 and only weighted 105-110 lbs all of her life. It's unnatural for me to weight more than 120 lbs. I think you have to check what kind of frame you have, too. Are you light or big boned? It can make a HUGE difference...

God i hate media... your not fat.

You are not fat.

the holidays are coming. i think you picked the wrong time of year for weight loss sweetie.

I'm only 4'11,and i weigh from a range of 115-130,mostly b/c i'm borderline diabetic,and i dont give a shit so i eat what i want when i want.I do for the most part eat healthy though,and i drink alot of water.Stay away from accessive amounts of salt,because it makes you retain water,thus making you appear fat,and limit your sugar intake (like stay away from soda,and sweet tea or coffee as much as possible,a little is ok) ,and of course white bread,any kind of white flour,and i guarentee you will lose weight.As for me yea i usually drink 2 sodas a day,6 or more glasses of water,i only eat breakfast and lunch (usually very healthy,with lots of whole grain,fruit,and veggies),and then i eat a few snacks for dinner. It's a working progress,actually my mom was pretty thin,and had a large appetite,maybe it runs in the family, i dunno.

below 150 lbs is fine. I'd think you were a whale if u weighed 200lbs
