Am I too skinny for my hight or just right?

Question

I'm 5'6 small-medium frame, bust waist and hip size is 38 31 and 38

People make cute skinny jokes at me and my mom is the only one that calls me fat.

Answer 1

I am 5'7 and about the same and but I have a 28 inch waist that I think I could lose a couple of more inches or at least tone up more. It all depends if you are happy when you look at yourself in the mirror. You really shouldn't care what other people think of you anyways.

Answer 2

Well, I'm a boy and I'm 15, I'm also 5 ft 6 inch and have a 28 inch waist so.. don't know if that tells you anything. What do you think your self? Do you think you are too skinny. Also, that's not very nice of your mum to say you're fat

Answer 3

Your hips and bust are fine, but you need to watch your waist measurement doesn't creep up any higher, as a waist of more than 32 inches puts you at an increased risk of diabetes/heart disease later in life. HTH : )

Answer 4

I was just like you once but I am taller that you. I am 5'9 and my weight was 110 and am now 140 and look gorgeous. I use to get jokes like crazy that use to offend me and i never wanted to go hang out because of my size but what I think is the problem is how you bring out yourself to people. Your self esteem has a lot to do with that i think you should walk proudly in you clothes and you will feel better about yourself. I you are looking to but on weight you should lift weights (gym) and eat lots of food and supplements. That will make a big difference.

Go to http://www.nhlbisupport.com/bmi/ and calculate your body mass index. It shows right on the website in which group you are.

Answer 6

This is not "too skinny" and not "fat"... honestly it sounds a little chubby, just slightly more than average.

Answer 7

You sound just right have fun.
