Am I overweight at 5'6 and 145 pounds?

You are about 10 lbs overweight. I am also 5’6”, we should be no more than 135 lbs, really. Seriously, I wouldn’t worry about losing weight, I’d just maintain where you are–cut down on junk food during the week and allow yourself more fun (not boatloads of it) on the weekend.

It is important to keep healthy and fit. It’s not about changing your body to fit into other people’s mold of what you should look like. It’s about being healthy and learning how to eat healthy to avoid excessive weight gain as you get older and to avoid diabetes type 2 and heart disease and obesity. It’s a horrible epidemic in this country and you need to keep control of your weight throughout your life, not just now in your teens.

Keep sugars at almost zero. Keep refined carbohydrates (breads, pastas, potatos) low and moderate in consumption and take up an exercise. Youll be fine.

You don’t need to do anything with your weight. YOU ARE FINE HOW YOU ARE!!!! I’m 5’4 and 1/2 and I weigh 115, but people tell me to gain weight. I personally think that people who tell you to change your body are on crack!!!

your not over weight.

Your Body Mass Index is 23.40

If you use a BMI or body mass indicator, you can calculate it yourself.

no your not. you need to start loving yourself and be happy that you have some curves
