Not even close kiddo.
Your body is going to change a lot over the next few years. Both with height and weight. Also, because you havent fully reached pubery yet your weight could be a little off now and then. All totally normal.
You are NOT fat nor are you at risk for becoming overweight. Your metabolism is far from settled at your age.

At five feet tall you should weight 100 lbs. and 5 pounds for every inch over five feet.
So I am sorry to say , you are about 25 pounds overweight.
Stop eating any and all junk food and sweets, that includes sodas. Read the labels on the packages of foods and look for low calorie and low sugar. You can do it. Keep in mind you are still growing. So be very active and cut back on those foods.
Please know that staying slim not skinny, just slim is a important health concern. Overweight people get sick much more with long term diseases. One of the big problems is your knees,no ones knees are meant to carry excessive weight. It is very painful. But you will get control ..
Good Luck.

if you could just lose a few pounds, you'll be fine. im not trying to hurt you in any way, but maybe the average weight is probably 112 for a dude your height

Nope.
I have a few friends who are 120.
And it's not like you're short
Even if you WERE fat(which you are not),
Body image really shouldn't affect you,
Unless it is life-threatening.
Remember to just be yourself,
And don't always think about what other people think.

I'm 11 too.

you are chubby, but you are also 11 so if you start good eating and exercise habits now, you should grow out of it by the time you are 13 or so. Eat low fat foods, eat protein rich foods, and do low weight high rep type exercises so your muscles will be longer/thinner instead of thick/bulky. GOOD LUCK.

You're fine. Besides, when you hit puberty it'll prolly drop real quick. But you're at normal weight for your age, so don't worry!

Your body mass index (BMI) is 24.2, you are at a normal weight, not fat.

You're not, no, but you're at risk of becoming overweight.
