Answers:
Your BMI is 20, at your age its considered a healthy normal weight!.

BMI= weight (kg) / [height (m)]2
or
BMI= weight (lb) / [height (in)]2 x 703

Below 18!.5 is Underweight
from 18!.5 to 24!.9 its normal Weight
from 25!.0 to 29!.9 its overweight
above 30 is obese

You should follow the BMI because this is what doctors use to see if you are healthy or not!. You are not overweight, you are in the midway in the normal Weight category!. If you lose 5kg you will be underweight, which is a problem!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

okay so your 5'4 (im 165cm too)
and your 121 pounds (im only 43kg)
im also only 13!.!.!.

i dont think you fat, you sound perfect!. if you think you "look" overweight, then i say loose 5 pounds tops!. someone for our height should NEVER EVER be below 115 so do whatcha want :)Www@Answer-Health@Com
