Is iit normal to be 18 weigh 160 pounds and be 5 foot 3?

I think you're looking for a specific answer here. If you feel healthy and comfortable at this weight, then you shouldn't have to change it. If you don't feel comfortable, then you know what needs to be done.

Your fat and beautiful

There are lots of answers to this. Is it common? Yes. Is it unattractive? Not to me. Is it potentially dangerous to your health? Yes. Should people be insulting you about it? No.

Your a badass babe.

i read alot of comments saying your very overweight & u kno what *uck them ! im 19 im 5'3 & im about 150,

now i kno im not "model skinny" its called being thick not fat

Wow, you just named my exact weight and height, and I know I'm fat or at least a bit of a chub chub.

I am 5´3 and I am 111 lbs and I am ok. But then again, every body is different, maybe you have more muscle, who knows.

It's just a little bit more than what I would consider I perfectly healthy weight. I'm sure you absolutely beautiful though. I know of girls much heavier than that and I would consider them to be some of the most beautiful. It doesn't matter how much you weigh as long as you are healthy and happy. If you notice that your eating patterns aren't good and that you don't exercise, bump it up a bit. Even simple things like walking, taking the stairs etc help with weight loss. Or join a dance class with friends (this is super fun!) and try to replace most junk food with healthy food :)

ur a bodybuilder?

I voted you're beautiful. No one can say you are fat or skinny unless you acknowledge it first.

...? I don't understand people's extreme reactions. 160lbs is not that heavy at all. Considering you're 5'3", yes, it's a little overweight, but WOW people are acting like you said you were 300lbs.

I see a LOT of people from the UK here... my best guess is that they just don't understand the conversion or something.

160 is just a little overweight, but certainly not nearly as bad as they're making it out to be. There's another girl who's 5'5" and 130 and feels fat?!?!? The moral quality of people here, and the way society makes people think about overweight people is sick.

You're beautiful. If you exercise a bit to lose some weight I'm sure you'll feel even better, and not even wonder if it's normal. But seriously, don't let the negative comments get you down now, people are asshats.

Sorry but that's really unhealthy and you are overweight. Very overweight.

Your Body Mass Index (BMI or percentage of body fat) is 28.34. BMI's between 25 and 29.9 are in the overweight category so you are overweight.

I recommend you try being more physically active and watch your calories. Try to burn more calories than you eat to lose weight. Drink water instead of soda, limit or cut out fast foods and fried foods and switch red meat for fish or poultry.

Many people are overweight but that does not make it okay. It is best to get a kickstart on your health habits now before it gets any worse. I know this is easier said than done 0_o

Only a pic can tell but, if you're like most people, you'd look really big a that weight with a big belly. Unless it's alot of muscle or really huge boobs.

You can't tell by looking in a mirror?

You sound kind of chubby, but I wouldn't worry about it. Especially if it's evenly distributed on your body.

I think you are overweight. I am 160 and 5 foot 6 and I think I'm a bit chubby, so you probably are too.

that a little big, I'm 5'5 and weightr 130, and I'm still alittle fluffy!

Some people will probably tell you that you are beautiful and that size doesn't matter etc etc.

It is true that you may be beautiful and a nice person. It is also true that you face very real health problems if you do not lose weight. In fact, you will likely gain more weight if you do not change your lifestyle. At 18 your metabolism is still higher than it will be a few years from now.

I'm a 5'11 28 year old man whose weight has fluctuated from 165-220 pounds over the last decade. I can tell you that I feel much healthier at a lower weight. I am currently around 200 and have high cholesterol at a young age.

Lose the weight now, trust me.
