no. you are definately not overweight. I worked for a weight loss company that had a weight chart of what doctors consider "too thin". for a woman who is 5'6, it was 135. you then subtract 2-3 pounds per inch of height you go down.. so you could be 123 and still be considered "too thin".

No way! My doctor says that girls, at 5'0'' should weigh 100 pounds and then for every inch over that weigh between 4-8 pounds more. So, at 5'2'', 116 is a little bit on the high end but probably not overweight. As long as you're eating well and excercising, your weight is not a big issue. Maybe you're just big-boned!

Compared to what?
I wouldn't think you are. Do you feel overweight or have you been looking at weight charts?
I don't go by the recommended "what you should weigh" for your height charts. Most are under what they should be compared to real people. If you are an athlete, you might weigh more because muscle mass weighs more than fat mass, but still look slim.

Sounds great to me... If I were you, I would skip the picture that has been requested multiple times. If you do post be prepared for some comments (possibly rude).
To your health!
