Answers:
The bad thing about charts (and BMI calculators) is that they don't take body composition into account!.
Muscle weighs more than fat!. So it really depends on your body composition!. If you have a high amount of muscle mass and possibly a large frame (big bones), you would weigh more without looking like it!. 165 does sound like a lot for only 5'4", but at only a size 8, not very big for your height and weight!.
Really the only way to know is to have your body fat percentage measured!. By a professional ideally and not just at the local Bally's!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

It could be, have you checked a BMI chart or consulted with your doctor!? An important thing to remember is weight and shape can be 2 different things!. Such as 20 pounds of fat as opposed to muscle!. It certaintly seems like you're just at the end of the normal span of weight!. Best of luck an I hope you find wat ur looking for lol!.

Hard to say!. But you are indeed overweight on the charts -- by about thirty pounds!. Not enough to panic over, but you do need to keep an eye on your weight!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I'm 5'4 and three-quarters and when I weighed 165 I was about a size 14!.
So either you have a lot of muscle!.!.!.or you wear your clothes very tight!. :)Www@Answer-Health@Com
