If you are 5'6" and weigh 115 pounds do you need to lose weight?

Answer 1

No, you are fine. You are thin. Too thin according to some. So either maintain that weight, or gain for health's sake. Please don't compare yourself to the models and celebrities you see on TV. This is the trap many women fall into. And then they try dangerous weight loss methods that make them more miserable in the end than ever before. Those people you see on TV aren't all at healthy weights. Many are too thin. And did you know a lot of models' pictures are photoshopped to look thinner? Furthermore, a model just died the other day on the runway from starving herself. Please take care and stay healthy!

Answer 2

No you do not. Watch yourself - if you think that is fat, you may have unrealistic ideas about your body shape.

115 at 5' 6" is pretty skinny - try not to drop further.

Answer 3

um no. most definitely not. if anything, you should gain weight. what's most important, though, is if you're comfortable in your own body, then you don't need to gain or lose weight. don't pay attention to that "perfect woman" image that's out there. that's bs. be comfortable with yourself! good luck!
