You're in a catch 22 situation from what I can tell. Your body weight isn't a lot but the body fat amount you're storing is. Your situation is tricky you shouldn't diet what you should do is switch the foods you eat. Eat more proteins and fats and cut down on the carbs and get rid of the sugar and soda and drinks/beverages that have sugar in them and get rid of the junk food like chips crackers cereals chocolates. Your situation isntva matter of losing weight it's a matter of getting rid of the extra fat deposits. To much fat build up can lead to heart issues high blood pressure diabetes cardiovascular disease and etc. Just walk more take up a sport try to keep as active as possible but don't go crazy about it. Keep a positive mind frame and love yourself for you when you feel better about yourself you'll start to look good and want to physically be better and that in return will give you more confidence to want to look better. It's all a cycle. How you feel about yourself will dictate how you look

You do not need to lose weight. Instead, go for a body recomposition, it'll be effective for you since you are a novice. Just find out how much calories you need to maintain your body weight. Then eat about 500 calories less than that a day. You will want to start lifting heavy with compound lifts, the main ones such as bench, squat, deadlift, overhead press and bent-over rows. There are other lists you can do but those main ones Will help you build a maintain muscle. You will want to eat 1 gram per pound of body weight of protein to maintain your muscle growth.
When you eat at a slight calorie deficit such as that and lift heavy and maintain your protein intake, you will lose fat and maintain your muscle mass. And even be able to gain some muscle since you are a beginner and beginners gain muscle pretty quickly. A good rule of thumb is if you're losing about a pound of week then you are losing just enough to lose fat and not your hard-earned muscle.
The way I see it is this
If you continue your life like this for another 4-10 years - how much will you weigh?
The best way to know if a lifestyle or action is good or evil is to think about how it will affect you 5 or 10 or 40 years down the road
You aren't ugly - you look great - but would you be comfortable gaining 5 pounds a year every year for the next 20 years of your life?

If the weight you want to go down to is within the "normal" weight, than just show it to your parents and promise them that you won't go under the normal weight.
Going for less could cause serious health issues.

I say lose as much weight as you want to but remember that your period my stop if you loose too much body fat.
you look like you are in a healthy weight range. So you don't NEED to lose weight.
But you are also carrying some spare fat, so if you wanted to get slimmer you can safely do it while staying healthy. So basically its just a personal choice for you.Latina again 😂 Haha how come we always know lol
Its fine, stop worrying about the pictures. Just go train for 2 years then ask. Nothing changes from the last time you asked lolThere is no way you weigh 119 pounds!! I don't say that to be rude but maybe you should try checking your scale and see whats up! This will give you a better mindset of what you should loose.
You look pretty healthy! I think you look great as you are now, but if you really wanted to lose a little weight (you really don't need to) that would be fine as well!
Is say loose some weight and then go into the definition stage. Maybe add some muscle to the back so your form looks more sporty.
I’d say 5-10pounds and then definition 👍🏼You don’t need to “lose weight “ you just need to work out which will make you look smaller and tighter. Don’t diet or you’ll get saggy.
You're certainly not ugly
Don't think you need to lose weight either to be honest
All you need to do is tone up a bit in the stomach area and that should do itYou do whatever you want to. If you want to get fitter and lose some fat, then do it. If you don't, then don't. Don't let what someone else says hold you back, girl.
Whether you lose weight or not you'll look good still and be fine.
I am sorry to tell this: are you having any kind of mental illness to post pics like these online
You dont have much fat nothing worth changing really, obviously strength training will give you more tone along with losing some additional fat.
Lose weight in the lower stomach area and start doing strength training.
I don't think you really need to.
But you can try going to the gym to get more toned.You blocked out all the good stuff I can't take it serious with parts of it scribbled out
You look wonderful. You could tone up your body by working out with weights.
It's not a problem, you are not over weight, but I would keep an eye on it..
I suggest you lose 10-15 pounds simply for aesthetics
~Mr Bails ExtraordinaireI can't tell if your an actual girl and i feel SuS for answering this
You really have a bit to much bodyfat in my opinion. You would be much more sexy with abou 10-15 lbs less.
