Sounds like that guy is just a jerk. There's no way you're fat at 97lbs ...in fact, depending on your height, you might even be underweight

I was 300 lbs 3 years ago at 5 foot 6 so I know what fat is and you are not it!! I know it hurts when people say things like that whether it's true or not. It's very sad when kids or adults for that matter, feel a need to cut other down with such destructive comments. The best thing you can do is not react to this person since I think that's all he is looking for. Then remember in the end it comes down to two things, listen to the people who care about you and try to be happy with who you are, no matter what your outside looks like. I hope that helps? Hang in there, life is too short to waste your time with negative (and wrong) statements like that.

I weigh a couple of pounds more than you do, just a couple. My adult son is always telling me, "You're SO fat!" because he knows I am way too thin...................and tries o get me to realize it by calling me FAT. I'm 5'5' and weigh between 99 pounds and 105 pounds, wear a size 0,1,2. People I am around a lot, seem to do the same thing to me. Always calling me HUGE and things like that. It is all in fun for them, and not meant as mean or anything. Most people are over weight, when it comes to the ladies' who tease me. Not my opinion, their opinion is that they are overweight. Just laugh

um...if you weigh 97 lbs, then I'd say you're FAAAR from fat. If this guy is telling you that you're fat, he either feels really bad about himself and is telling you that to make himself fell "better" about himself, or else he likes you and is tormenting you, kind of like a kindergartner who pulls hair. Don't listen to him. Check out the body height/weight calculator below, it shows what the ideal weight is for specific heights - and at 97 lbs, I'm sure you're either ideal (if you're short) or UNDER.

If you know that he exaggerates why are you listening to him. When he starts talking to you just turn around and walk away. If he follows you tell him off. He has some serious issues. You need to listen to your mom and your friends, not some guy that is trying to destroy your self-esteem. Your weight also should be in coordination with your height. My sister was 98 pounds for years, but she was only 5'1" and she was healthy.

There is no way that it is healthy for an 18 year old to be 97lbs..you need to gain some weight asap, why would you listen to the boy in your class? are you serious, why wouldn't you listen to your mother she is the one that actually loves and cares for you.

nobody has a picture of you and can tell you if you're fat or skinny, but 97 pounds?!
you sound v. healthy to me!
listen to the people you trust about your weight:
i.e. your mom, your friends.
not some random guy in class.

Gosh! Of course you're not fat. besides, if you really want to know, you can always search the BMI/body mass index on google, it will show you waht your healthy weight is. However, it does depend on how tall you are.
