If you are 5'3'' and 127lbs, then that makes your BMI about a 22, which is in the healthy range. BMI stands for Body Mass Index and calculates your height and weight to determine if you are in a healthy weight range. a BMI of over 25 is considered overweight. However, if you feel like you could stand to lose a few pounds b/c it would make you feel better, then just eat right, drink lots of water, and exercise. I don't think you need to go on some crazy diet. They never work out anyway! If you want to see your BMI for yourself, then search BMI calculator. Weight Watchers website has one.

Go take a look in the mirror. You are perfectly healthy. Neither fat, nor obese. Besides, you don't have to worry about these things at your age.

No, you are not overweight. You probably just want to try and maintain your current body weight, but you don't need to lose any weight. HTH : )

Don't obsess about your weight...that's a fine weight to be for your age. Obsessing about you weight can lead to more serious things..please don't let yourself fall victim to an eating disorder because you are so worried about your appearance.

the amount of body fat that you have determines if you are fat or obese.
just based on statistical data at your age group for your gender there is nothing wrong with your weight for your height...

no you are not even remotely overweight. to be considered obese you must be 40lbs or more over weight. your weight is average

I think you are OK. If you are concerned, check the internet for sites that measure your 'bmi' or body mass index.

No, I think you are normal. Good job. I am the same height, but weigh 135 and feel good and look good.
