I am five five and weigh 135. I carry most wieght on my hips and thighs. Do i need to lose weight? And no- i'm not just being some shallow person that cares to much about what other people think. I would really just like to know other ppl's opinions.

As long as the weight isn't around your stomache, you'll be fine...
How you know if you should lose weight... check your Body Mass Index... I've done the calculations for you... you just type in your height and weight... so your's is a 22.5 which means you're perfect.
BMI Categories:
Underweight = <18.5
Normal weight = 18.5-24.9
Overweight = 25-29.9
Obesity = BMI of 30 or greater

Weight looks different on different people. I've always weighed more than I'm supposed to, but no one knew, even my doctor was surprised. He actually told me, "You carry your weight well!" I almost fell out! You may look just fine, or you may need to tone up in your legs. I'm sure whatever the case, in the end you will have to be happy with you. Good Luck!

What matters is how YOU personally feel about yourself. Do you honestly feel you need to lose weight? Do you think you'd look better if you were lighter? Do you think you'd feel better about yourself? If so, go for it. If you're happy with how you are, despite what other people may think, then keep the weight you have. It doesn't matter how others perceive you, it's how you perceive yourself that is important!

no I don't think you need to lose weight just do some exercise to tone up the hips and thighs.

I wouldn't say so much losing weight as getting cardio excercise to just tone as well as doing some lunges and leg excercises to just tone and shape up what you have. Cardio helps your clothes just fit better and helps you look better all over - walking fast, jogging, walking/running, etc.

No. You are probably ok the way you are. Do not worry to much about it.
