I weigh 110- 115. I am 5'3"-5'4". I play sports so I'm not super muscular but not weak either. I also look good in a bikini, but have a little flab. Do you think I'm fat? I think I'm not but could use a few ounds.

No, that's not fat and I don't think anyone would think you are. And even if they did, you are not medically overweight, so you don't need to worry.
Everyone has a little flab, it's normal. If you look good in a bikini and play sports, I'm sure you look fab. You do not need to lose any weight, just keep yourself toned up. Take care : )

Well, you cant really give us two different heights and then give us a 5 pound difference. An inch and 5 pounds can make a difference in whether you're fat or not.
If you were 5'5" and 110 (BMI of 18.3) , you'd be considered a little underweight, but if you were 5'5" and 115 (BMI of 19.1)you'd be healthy/normal.
If you wre 5'6" and 110 (BMI of 17.8) you'd be a little more underweight than if you were 5'5". If you were 5'6" and 115 (18.6) you'd barely be healthy/normal weight.
Underweight = <18.5
Normal weight = 18.5-24.9
Overweight = 25-29.9
Obesity = BMI of 30 or greater
So, as you can see an inch plus 5 pounds makes a difference.
And even if you were 5'5" and 110 (or 5'6 and 110) you wouldnt be anorexic underweight, just skinny so it's all good

You're fine. I'm 5'4 and my doctor says the healthiest weight for my height is about 137 so you would actually be underweight. Before my kids I was 115 and I was always being told by my doctor that I needed to gain weight. Now after two kids (and no exercise) I weigh 130. Don't worry about it. As long as you think and know you look good, don't worry about what others think.

No you are definitely not fat- I'm 5'5 and I weigh 153lbs, I used to run track and play volleyball, so I'm not muscular, but I have some cut arm, but definitely no, it sounds like you are height and weight porportioned, don't let others discourage you- you are just fine, just try looking in the mirror and saying to yourself, I am just fine, there is nothing wrong with me, once you gain that confidence you'll be alright, but you start to pick at little things about yourself, that turns into big things that lead to harmful things so just love yourself and not worry what others think about your weight or just you

You sound like you need to tone up a bit. If you have to ask complete strangers or worse Your friends (who will get sick of you asking them all the time) then you are not the correct weight. Being under weight can be even more unattractive then over weight. You claim to play sports but they might not have enough exercises. Maybe some cardiovascular exercises to get your body in better shape.

I would say no. I'm 5'5" and I weigh 128, but I work out and have muscle tone. A little bit of flab doesn't make you fat. Just relaxe and be comfortable in your own skin.

The question is not "Am I Fat?" it's "Why do you think you have to ask?" It sounds like you have more serious problems than extra flab. If you look good in a bikini and still have to ask, you have self esteme issues and self image issues. You need to know you look good. "Fat" is in the eye of the on-looker.

Don't worry about what others think. You are at a healthy weight, you are not fat. You also play sports, which means you are active. It sounds like you are living a healthly lifestyle.
