no, because you may think your friend are skinny because they are under weight... therefore it causes you to think you are over weight... but it is average to weigh 105-108LBS

A size 6-8??? Go and visit an evans store look at 16-18 and compare. Given that size 16 is the average womans size I would say you are not fat. If you think you are you may be suffering with an eating disorder or body dysmorphic disorder. Just enjoy life and dont even go there!

You have got to be joking! I'm 5ft2, 120lb and UK size 10-12 and I don't think I'm fat, neither does my doctor or personal trainer! Anyway your fatness is not based on your clothes size or your weight, but your body fat levels and also the measurement of your waist. You can have your body fat percentage checked by your doctor or at the gym.
I'm sure you are fine, if you think you need to tone up, you can do that. But you are not overweight or fat, so don't ever think that ok!
Take care : )

You don't say your age or your frame size...but it doesn't sound fat at all. If you are older...you should actually weigh a little more.
I'm 5' 3" and weight 130lbs. I'm not fat...I'm also 47 and I've had two kids. If I weighed what you weigh I'd be skeletal.

Hey, Ive actually just put your details into a Body Mass Index calculator, now these calculate using your height and weight, whether you are under weight, ok, normal weight, overweight etc. etc. and you have BMI of 19.24- meaning you are at the healthy weight.
Please check the link to find out yourself.

Are you for real?? You have got to be kidding if you think you're fat, in fact you are incredibly small and possibly even underweight.
This is a joke question, right? Or you are fishing for compliments?
If you genuinely believe you are fat you need some counselling urgently!

I knew as soon as I saw the title to this question that the answer was going to be no.
Why do you come on here knowing full well that you arent in the slightest bit overweight? Its like a cry for help "compliment me, compliment me"
Oh no my dear, you are soooooo perfect, dont change a thing.

Oh please.....you're just fishing for compliments. How could anyone weight 108 lbs and ask this question with a straight face?

The real question is are you fit? No, not appearance wise.
If you was lined up with an obese person and had to complete a serious of fitness tests, how well would you fair?
