No, you are completely healthy. What matters more in this case is your BMI, which is actually closer to underweight than overweight (you are normal). The hip-waist ratio is useful only when taking into account other indicators like BMI because some women's bodies are naturally inclined to store more fat around their hips than others, but that doesnt mean they are unhealthy.
