Why do I feel like I'm fat?!


Question: Why do I feel like I'm fat?
I look down and my belly looks a little chubby (especially when I'm sitting down). But people keep telling me I'm too skinny, I'm 111 pounds, my height is 5'7", 17 years old, male. I don't want to look fat and I want to lose a little weight.

Answers:

I know what you mean. Even if you're skinny, like you are, there's always a little bit of skin and fat that bunches up when anyone is sitting. Don't judge it by what it looks like when you sit. I'll bet when you stand up you can barely grab anything when you pinch your belly, right? You're okay the way you are, although on the skinny side. Your BMI is 17.4, indicating your weight is in the Underweight category for adults of your height, but at your age it's not that unusual to be that light. 18.5 is considered the beginning of the "normal" weight range. For your height, a normal weight range would be from 118 to 159 pounds.

I'm on the skinny side too, and I ran your numbers on a BMI calculator.



You aren't fat just obsessed by fit! You aren't chubby and at least even you were a little chubby....what is the problem? i like to touch something when i hug a man!



because you are fat. you should probably just kill yourself and do the whole world a favor : )



Why do you keep asking that?



God damn you.
