I'm a little thick, should I lose weight? Or is it because I am short?!
Question: I'm a little thick, should I lose weight? Or is it because I am short?
Answers:
genetics play a big part on the proportion of your body... no worries.. as long as you are active and eating appropriately you'll be fine..
being physically active is important to keep your legs toned and not turned into fat/cellulite
A picture would be necessary to evaluate your question. Weight/height alone are not enough to determine if you're healthy.
One of these will help you:

Also, fat stored around the stomach is most dangerous. It sounds like you're at a perfectly healthy weight. Just make sure you're active, exercise regularly, and eat healthily.
I am a certified nutritionist and life coach.
I am 5' 1" and weight 117 lbs, 21yds. I am "thick" in my thighs as well, thats where all my fat goes it never ends up in my tummy area. Anyways, I went to the doctor less than a month ago and he said I was perfectly healthily for my height and weight. But if you feel uncomfortable with your thighs being "thick" just work on toning them up. Thats my plan!
I found a few websites that give a chart of the ideal weight for your height but theres a catch there mostly based on women aging from early 20's and older. take a look at them and I hope I helped a lil.

It's obviously the way your body is proportioned. You can't lose any weight as you are at the minimum for your height.
should base it on fat percentage the norm for a female is around 22% try to stay around that.
