Answer 1

Your mom is right you are not overweight 130lbs is good for 5'4 however if u wanna lose some weight i'd advise you eat healthy and exercise and gradually change your eating habits . I suffered from anorexia and bulimia at different stages of my life and it wasn't pretty. Any form of unhealthy fad diet you adopt at this stage might have side effects on you later in life. My eating disorder stunted my growth cause i starved myself of major nutrients in the name of diet.

Answer 2

No. 5"6" is tall for a lady, extremely a fifteen three hundred and sixty 5 days previous. in case you're delicate with your self there is not any want to shed pounds. in case you sense uncomfortable or self-concious, attempt firming up.

Answer 3

You sound like a normal teen. 130 @ 5'4" is ideal. Boys/guys like curves, sweety. Don't do anything drastic like stop eating or anything else that could hurt you. Find someone to talk to, who'll listen, and not judge. I know moms are hard because they are supposed to tell you your beautiful. Maybe talk to your mom and try to find a counselor to talk to.

Answer 4

You aren't overweight. If you are concerned about it, just start eating healthier foods and be more active. I'm 5'5 and weigh 135. I have a lot of muscle tone, but even when I didn't, I wasn't fat.

Answer 5

A FEW THINGS TO REMEMBER:
The correct way to burn fat and stay healthy is to burn more calories than you consume
You need to make sure you are eating healthy foods while still excercising
If you have a big appetite drink plenty of water so that you will feel full but not consume calories
But you should always eat
If you start to skip meals you will only be more hungry at your next meal and probably eat way too much
Remember, the average persons stomach is as big as a slice of pizza scrunched up into a ball
So you shouldnt be putting more food into your stomach than what fits
Also, it takes aproximately 15-20 minutes for your brain to realize that you are full
so eat slower and you will realize sooner when you are not hungry anymore

ALSO....
i found this artical called "50 Habits of "Naturally Thin" People
How to get Started:Decide how much you want to loose and see how many calories a day it will take to make it happen by year's end.Then, work into your routines however many of these eating tweaks and exercises you need to achieve your goal.
Slash 250 cal.s a day to lose about 25 lbs. in a year, Slash 500 cal.s to loose 50 pounds.
This is based on a 150-pound person: you may need to cut more/ fewer calories depending on ur weight, age & gender. It also assumes your normal calorie intake essentially stays the same and your weight is stable.
