I went to the website cited below and entered your weight (160 lbs) and height (5'9") into the Body Mass Index Calculator. Your results came out to 24 which is normal... 25 is considered overweight. You can do it again yourself at this website. If it makes you feel any better I did it for myself as well (I'm 5'6" and 145 lbs and 19 years old) and I came out to be a 24 also. Don't worry about it that much, if you are happy with yourself then it does not matter what you weigh or what others say. It's your life and you decide what you do with it. I have always been self-conscious about my body but I've learned to get over it. As you get older you will too. Good luck!

if your a guy, you tend to weight more. if your a girl then you might be a little over weight. just look at the mirror. if you see a little belly, you know you have to cut back on the junk food and introduce more activity to your life. the worst you can be is lightly chubby. and thats cute sometimes. anyway ... simply look at the mirror. its not all about the scale, its about how you look. because 160 pounds can be massive weight on someone, but on another person they can look healthy.
