Am I too overweight/fat?

[Anonymous]

I'm 5'3 and weigh 143 lbs.

Is it too bad? And what should my weight be to be considered healthy?

I know not about fat and wouldn’t call people that word, but possibly a bit overweight. According to the BMI chart, a person of 5’3” should be a little over 100lb to 140lb. Lose a few pounds and You’re good to go, or turn some of the fat into muscle. Exercise is a must as well as healthy eating is. However, I think Your weight can be fine. When I don’t eat much, I get ‘underweight,’ but when I nosh too much food, all the food in my digestive tract adds to my weight, making it ‘healthy,’ so I don’t trust the BMI chart 100%.

Judging by my ex-fiance who was slightly chubby at 5' 3" and 135 Lbs, you might be a tad on the chubby side, too. With her, though, it was mostly in her thighs and belly and could hardly be noticed if she worse loose clothes.

I am 5'3 and 150 lbs, but it's not because I am fat but because I have muscle, and a big butt so which adds to my weight.

it depends on how your body is built, I also at a point thought I was fat because the doctors would tell me to lose weight but it wasn't fat it was muscle which adds more weight than fat.

@SunsetBeautyxxxx yeah i get that too bc of muscle. do u do sports?

[MarkyMark77]

It all depends on your muscle/fat ratio. If you are low fat, but very muscular you will have a high weight but still be healthy. Ask in a gym to measure your fat %. That says more than just your weight

I think we have similar proportions. I am 5'6" and 165 lbs and I think I am chubby.

Then, we gotta work out hard now to burn these calories off. We got this! 💪🏻😅

No way. You're far from fat, and I bet have a great body. Plus, guys love all shapes. I'm 300-plus pounds and my husband goes wild for my body. He likes chubby chicks.

[MCheetah]

No. Although you're short, that weight is normal for a woman.

A little overweight but it depends on how your weight is distributed.

[bamesjond0069]

115 lbs probably. So that puts you at almost 30 lbs overweight.
