Answers:
your BMI is 19.5 which is normal weight . you no need to worried
But According to the NHLBI guidelines, assessment of overweight involves using three key measures:

body mass index (BMI)

waist circumference, and

risk factors for diseases and conditions associated with obesity.
The BMI is a measure of your weight relative to your height and waist circumference measures abdominal fat. Combining these with information about your additional risk factors yields your risk for developing obesity-associated diseases. you can visit the follwing page for further details

We're all different shapes and sizes. It doesn't sound hugely overweight to me. Try not to worry about it.

No, you are not fat. Try not to let your weight become an obsession.
Oh, yea you're in need of lipo suction. Get a grip sister.
It also depends on your age. You might still have some baby fat to work off. Try some toning exercises to firm those areas that you are not comfortable with. You are not fat, it just sounds like you need a little tone, that's all.
Girl your not fat!!
no
You probably need some toning. Congratulations on your weight loss.
no
You have a perception problem. Seek professional help ASAP.
perhaps you shouldnt judge yourself by using someone else..your unique..accept it =) i mean.its like not everyone looks good in the color purple.so stop looking at someone else's mirror..if your truely worried ask your doctor about your bmi, diet and exercise plan
Yes, Definitely...you are fat. I would start a diet immediately!
5'1, 103lbs should not be considered fat, at least I wouldn't think so. I think you're being too tough on
yourself.. relax a little!!
NO YOU DEFINITELY AREN'T FAT! BUT YOU HAVE TO FEEL GOOD ABOUT YOURSELF TO KNOW THAT.LOOK AROUND YOU AND CONSIDER YOURSELF LUCKY TO BE 5'1 AND WEIGH 103..SMILE:-))
Not. Even. Close.

You've got a distorted sense of 'fat' there, honey. You may be confusing curvy with fat, and they are two very very different things. 103 pounds is on the slender side for us 5'1" people.
It's absolutely not fat.
two people can weigh the same, but carry it differently. You shouldn't compare yourself to someone else's body.
You are a very healthy weight for your height, and all that any of us can do it to try and have a healthy body for US, without trying to look like someone else.
most will say your not fat you may not be eaxctly thin either though all the female gymnysts who are about your height only weigh 75-90 pounds
