You are not overweight at all. You are within the ideal weight for a person of your height. Now let me ask you a question? Are you mostly muscle? Because if you are, this is extremely healthy. Muscle weighs more than fat, and the more muscle you have in your body, the more fat you will burn. BMI calculators are not the best to figure out if you are overweight or not. Look at some athletes, they are some of the fittest people in the world, but their BMI would say that they are overweight. That is not the case. It only depends on the quality of your weight, and if you are mostly muscle than you are healthy.

You are at your indeal weight for your height. You will see if you check out your BMI. I am the same age, same height, same weight as you too! I was worried I weighed too much, until I learnt that most people are the same when you are 5'7. A person who is 5'7 is healthy anywhere (if I remember correctly) from 120 (being a person who is naturally very very skinny) to approx 165, so you are perfect!!

You are exactly what the weight experts [ endocrinologists ]
recommend - 100 pounds for 5' of height, and 5 pounds per inch after that.
Just keep an eye on it, and maintain it!

You're not overweight.
Do a google search for "BMI Calculator". You can see ideal weights for your height, which, you are already at your ideal weight.

i do no longer think of you do would desire to shed weight. communicate on your physician to work out no rely in case you do or no longer. i'm 5'7(and 24, woman) and my healthful weight variety is between one hundred thirty-160lbs. in case you desire to tone your physique-i could advise speaking to the staff on the well-being center you bypass to and notice what they could advise :)
