It depends on your frame and build - I would say you are height and weight proportionate.
Remember muscle weighs more than fat, so don't go by the scale....go by how you look and feel in your clothes.
If you want to lose 10 pounds all over, drink water with lemon, green tea, eat breakfast everyday - preferrably protein....and eat 4 more small meals a day. Rather than exercise where it feels like work...turn on your favorite dance music and dance for 1/2 - 1 hour a night. Swimming is best - but just dancing around your room free and happy is good for the soul and helps you tone up.....dance using every part of your body...you are your own aerobics instructor.
Good luck.

How do you feel about yourself? If you're ok with your appearence, why change?
You're also still fairly young and will mostly either keep growing a bit or lose some of the weight naturally.
Just make sure you eat a balance and healthy diet and you'll be fine.

You can calculate your BMI on some websites. I calculated yours and it happens to be 22.8, which is in the normal range.
You don't NEED to lose 10lb, but if you want to, I suggest to change little part in your basic diet. Use less butter, that kind of stuff.
If you do sports, it wouldn't be a good idea to lose weight if your current weight works fine with you.

You sound just perfect for an athletic 15 year old that is 5'10". Enjoy your sports and don't get obsessed about your weight.

I don't think you need to lose any weight..For your height you could probably stand to gain a few pounds..

continue doing sports regularly, along w/ eating healthy -lots of veggies and drink plenty of water
good luck
