Answer 1

You're not too skinny. I think that you're at the perfect weight and should not loose more. To get ride of the belly fat, do crunches.

Answer 2

You are definately not too skinny, when I was 15 I weighed the same as you and had a bit of a belly too. The best thing to do would be about 100 crunches a day. You don't have to do them all at once, but throughout the day, maybe split it up into 40 and 60 or something like that. Just make sure that by the end of the day you've done at least 100 (of course, more is always better). I did this for about 2 or 3 weeks and started to notice a dramatic difference. You gotta stick to it tho, and not slack off.

Answer 3

Don't wear a belly band. They're for pregnant women to hold up their non-maternity clothing, not for losing weight.
Sit ups and crunches and other ab exercises are good for you and will improve your overall fitness, but by toning muscles rather than reducing fat significantly in one area.
Unfortunately... there's no miracle for loss of fat in the abdomen or any other part of your body. There really isn't a way to lose weight in one spot and keep it regular in another. Your metabolism doesn't work that way.
Try working out regularly - in addition to crunches and cardio, talk to a trainer and make a weight-lifting regimen. If done safely, you'll increase muscle mass - thus helping you stay at a healthy weight. It's good for your bones too.
And watch what you eat. Not just cutting calories or fat, because if you only weigh 110 pounds you clearly aren't in danger of being overweight - but try and put healthy foods in your body (no trans fats, lots of vegetables and low-fat proteins, etc). Make sure you eat *enough*, especially at your age - 30% fat, 30% protein and 40% carbs. At least 2000 calories a day. More if you work out.

Finally, so you have a little belly? That makes you human like the rest of us! Chances are lots of other girls envy your figure... Try and learn to love the way you look. That's the number one healthiest thing you can do for yourself.

For your height you should be 125 - 131 so yes u are a lil skinny but hey if your happy with it and healthy than do your thing. But it is true you can't lose fat in one area of your body, your body decides where it will take off the fat but crunches and body sculpting is the best way to strength your abs.

Answer 5

ok, i can so relate to this! Im skinny too, naturally skinny mind you (i eat like a horse and dont believe in dieting). When I was 15 (in my mid 20s now), I was skinny and like you I have a tummy and worst, chubby face! gosh I looked horrible come to think of it! hahaha... but strangely, I dont really realised when, but i lost them! I guess even skinny ppl have baby fats?!?!??! Yeah i lost my baby fats, my face slimmed down and I have a flat tummy now whether I eat like a horse or not. My guess is you ll most probably shred all the excess fats off.

Answer 6

im 14 5'5 and 107 pounds, you sound fine to me. to get rid of the fat around your belly try doing sit ups every day, it worked for me. i started with doing 30 the first week then 40 the second, and now i just do 50 every day. if you find starting with 30 sit ups is to hard or to easy just decrease or increase the amount.

Answer 7

I'm 18, 4'11 and my doctor said I should be 110. If you are 5'6 then you are definitely too skinny!

Answer 8

Yes, you are super skinny. I'm 5'4 and used to weigh 105 lbs and looked like a corpse. I weigh 120 now and they say I look just right. I think you have to do sit-ups whenever you have time. I bought this twister thing-y that I use whenever I watch television and it worked for me. It took 2inches off my waist and flattened my tummy. Hope this helps.

Answer 9

if you are 5 ft 6...110 is pretty thin !
sit ups and crunches are best for tummy areas......

Answer 10

You're BMI is 17.8

# Underweight = <18.5

If I were you, I'd gain some pounds because you are too skinny!
