Nowdays doctors use Body Mass Index (BMI) to determine whether or not a person is overweight or underweight. BMI is a measurement based on height and weight as it relates to body fat, and can be used to determine how much risk a person has of developing certain health problems because of his or her weight.
As a point of reference, someone with a BMI of 27 is approximately 20 percent overweight. The higher the BMI, the greater the risk a person has to develop additional health problems. Conversely, a BMI below 18 is considered underweight.
Your BMI is around 22 so you're perfectly normal. If you're not satisified with the way you look, you might want to start on an exercise + diet routine in order to reach your goals.

If you are female, I bet you have a really cute, curvy figure. I wouldn't get any heavier though. If you are a guy, beef up a little.
