NO, not fat. Self-conscious because of other peoples' incorrect opinions, but not fat.
Here are some ways to know for sure:
1. Get a thorough physical by a DOCTOR. Your family & friends don't know sh!t.
2. Consider how your clothing fits. Do you have ROLLS of fat hanging over the edge of your pants? Do you have ROLLS of flesh on your legs? Are you wearing a size 14 or bigger???
3. How FIT are you? Can you climb several flights of stairs without getting winded? Can you jog for any distance without wanting to pass out? Can you keep up with those around you when you're out for a walk, or must you stop repeatedly to catch your breath? Can you maintain a normal conversation while exerting yourself?
Don't let yourself be sucked in by other peoples' lousy opinions...they shouldn't mean anything - YOUR personal opinion should not be weighed against everyone else's.

There's no way you can be considered fat. Go to the doctor and see what he/she says. If you are a threat to yourself and your health is at risk, that is obese. My wife is 5'3" and about 200 pounds and I don't consider Her fat. Your boyfriend must like the Gwenith Paltro type. If you can run the 100 yard dash in 20 seconds, you're not fat. Send me your picture, I'll tell you if you are.

hm~ you are not FAT! since its a fashion to be skinny/slim in asia now (by the way, i am an asian too), maybe your mom, bf and friends see you as "fat". but, hey.. 100 Ibs is normal for a 5'3, perhaps you may want to try toning up your legs and arms by doing yoga or pilates? try to do lots of stretching around legs and arms. hope this helps..

I don't know what those numbers mean, but you're not fat at 5'3 and 100 lbs! But if you really think you are, then maybe you could try exercising, lifting weights and such?

OK, GIRL!!! You are not fat, but you may be out of shape.
You aren't even over weight. You are actually, underweight, if you are really 5'3.
You may just need to exercise to firm up. If people are calling you fat, you don't need to take that, it seems to be hurting your self esteem.
