PLEASE BE BRUTALLY HONEST/

Answers:
Nope, not according to published charts. Your BMI is 22. Over BMI of 25 is considered obese or overweight. You're in perfect health. Scroll down to read the charts from the link:

No. 5'3 and 122 is about right.
ok; no your perfect!!
i'm 13 and 5'0 and i weigh 175!
no thats average
No. get a grip your not done growing. stop obsessing now or you will never be happy. low self esteem leads to serious problems. learn to be happy w/ yourself now!
No way! You are a healthy girl! Remember Marilyn Monroe and Jane Russell? They were sexy and beautiful women.
your BMI is right in the middle of the healthy range. which means you're at a perfectly fine weight.

no. go by your pant size. do they fit or are they getting tighter all the time? You probaby still will grow taller too. 122 lbs is not alot for 5'3".
that depends. if you go by the wieght/height/age alone, you don't sound fat, but if by fat do you mean do you have fat, you have to look in a mirror. does your stomach stick out farther than your boobs? when you stand are your thighs squished together? if you're weight is fat, then you should be able to see it and you can eat healthier and excercise more. if it's muscle and you are toned, then NO you are NOT fat.
To be brutally honest, no, you are not overweight Anastasia. In fact, that's a great weight for your size and age. Take care.
no you be considered "normal" by the body mass index. please dont listen to all of the height/weight charts, although you are considered normal by those standards, many are unreasonable. they dont take into account bone mass, body type etc. an asian woman may look great at 95 lbs whereas a caucasion woman of the same height might look terminally ill. allow yourself some slack!
no my wife is about the same height but weighs 110 i would like to see her GAIN more weight
your not over weight if you were 5"3 and 185 then worry
Nope!! You're good.
No your ok for your height. I was at 120 before I had my son and I am 5'4. I was pretty much that weight for a long time till I had my son. So don't worry about it. You are who you are and the only thing that matters is if YOU are happy. :)
Your body-mass index (BMI) is 21.6. This is normal for adult men and women. However, since you are only 15 y.o., you might want to consult the Center for Disease Control Growth Charts: http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/nhanes/grow...

For a 15 y.o. girl, the BMI median is at 19.1, and the 75th percentile is at 22.3.

If you are not exactly 15 y.o. (i.e. today is not your birthday), but a few months beyond that, then these BMI numbers are a bit higher. For example, for a 16 y.o., the median is 20.4 and the 75th percentile is at 22.9.

BMI does not apply to top athletes. Does basketball star Shaq look obese to you? His BMI is 31.6, which puts him the the obese category. Obviously, he has more muscle than fat.
