I would say no, but without your height it is hard to tell. Also, determining if someone is fat takes more than the numbers. If you are an athlete then you may have a higher percentage of muscles, which weighs more than body fat and you wuld have a higher weight despite being in shape. You also could have a larger frame than others and that would make you weigh more. All in all, I highly doubt that you are fat if you weigh 118lbs. But, I should add that I am 22, weigh more than twice that, and I work with fat acceptance groups, so I believe a person should be healthy and not stress about what the scale reads.

Even if you were short I'd still say NO. I'd love to weigh that again, and I'm only 5'4 and weigh 168 lbs!!! That sounds like a good weight. (Unless you are 7 ft tall, then it might be a tad on the thin side).

My sweet latin girl,
You can confirm this by yourself. But you must take into consideration your height also.
Body mass index (BMI) is a measure of body fat based on height and weight.
Pls log on to http://nhlbisupport.com/bmi/ .
Fill in your height in feet and inches and also weight in pounds.
Click on "Compute BMI" and yo your BMI will appear in the "heart" of the figure.
The BMI table will tell you whether you are UNDERWEIGHT, NORMAL, OVERWEIGHT or OBESE !!
And when you come to know you are not fat, may you be happy!
Now isn't this the best answer!!?

of course you are fat......the body has a certain amount of fat on it anyway.....find someone who can calculate your body fat.....if it's below 10%....then you are not fat even though you have fat on your body.....above 10% shows a little bit like a pooch belly or a few inches on the hips but don't let that distract you from your looks.......you should worry if your body fat is above 22%...it not only shows but brings the worries of losing weight on.......
Just to let you know also....a 6% body fat count on a person is probably the best you can get in a healthy situation.

nooooo. your perfect. it doesnt matter how tall you are. i dont think youd be too tall anyways. since if your tall and at your age and weigh you wouldnt be concerned about being fat. so im gussing your short like between 5 feet and 5 something. i dont know. im 5 feet, 24 years old and im 120 pounds. i dont think im fat. i would like to tone up a little. but i think you are perfect. dont worry about anything. okay? enjoy your body and love it.

one way to find out for sure is with a bfi (body fat index) but 118 is too skinny for alot of women i wouldnt worry about it unless you suddenly gain 40 or 50 lbs and remember muscle weighs more than fat

Pretty sure your just looking for compliments here, anyone would know that 118 pounds isnt fat if your anything over 5 feet.
