Compared to what ? LOL
Well, that would depend upon the amount of muscle that you are carrying. Unfortunately, the scale cannot differentiate between fat and muscle.
Muscle is much denser than fat so if you were 5'1 at say 20% body fat you would be several sizes smaller than if you were at 30 %
The main questions are
1. Are you happy with the way you look?
2. Are you happy with the way that you feel?
3. Are you comfortable doing normal every day activities?
4. Are there things that you do not wear or would like to wear but don't because you feel uncomfortable?
If you are comfortable in your body and your skin than you are fine.... That having been said, most everyone on the face of the earth will benefit from a regular exercise program and healthy eating habits..

Difinately not whom ever made you think this way needs a little weight taken off there brain!!! I'm only 5'3 and weight a little more and I don't believe I'm fat. Everyones body is a little diferent what some people think is fat is crazy. Have notice that the models of today are all flat chested? Why do you think that is? Because they are starving themselves to death in the name of so called beauty. Maryln Monroe was a size 10-12 and she was considered the most beautiful woman in the world. And she difinately was not considered fat.

Depends on several factors. Are you M or F? A muscular male may not be overweight, while a woman probably will not look proportionate. The guage I use looking for women is this:
5'tall - no more than 100lbs
5'1" - nmt 110
5'2" - nmt 120
etc.

No, you wouldn't be overweight. But more importantly, is your body fat below 30%? If so, then you are fine. If not, then you may want to think about losing a few pounds. HTH : )

Refer to your boy mass index. Your BMI is 23, indicating your weight is within the normal range for adults of your height. You are not over weight

For proper health, the weight distribution should be 20lbs. for every foot & 5lbs. for every inch above that. So for the height of 5'1" the healthiest weight would be 105lbs.

I would have to see a picture of you: Its bone structure, hips, waist, etc: Every female is shaped differently: No set wt/ht ratio really.
