o_O;; The people at your school must be like.
super-sticks if they call you fat.

I'm not sure of the waist/chest measurements, but 119 lbs sounds good for someone who is 5'6.

EDIT: If you have some muscle mass, just so you know, muscle DOES weigh more than fat too.

The measurements you gave cannot measure fatness or skinnyness, it has more to do with your ratio of muscle to fat. Body fat percentage is the only meaningful measure for this.

BMI and height and weight measurements don't really mean anything for an individual. (they are very commonly misused and misunderstood) Muscle weighs a lot more than fat so you can be 'overweight' simply by having lots of muscle, but that doesn't mean that you are fat.

Furthermore, not everyone has the same basic body shape so what is healthy and normal for one person is not the same for another person.

If you vere a girl at 119lbs and 5'6, I vould say you are just about rrright (leaning tovards the heavier side).
Now for a young male also zis is a good veight, but you should defintely be heavier zen lighter.
Do not vorry if your veight increase over time, for zis vould be norrrmal and more healthy. It vill happen as the metabolism begins to go on ze decrease!

do no longer hear to the term 'pear' shape that's a terrible terrible term. you've gotten skinny legs! you in basic terms would desire to tone up it extremely is all. you're able to do specific routines like crunches, squats (they are the main suitable!) to tone up your legs, ***, and knees in case you somewhat need! additionally, that's recommended to think approximately that it is something to do which contain your eating regimen. once you're thighs are better then it is uncomplicated to declare that as quickly as you positioned on weight, the fat etc is going on your thighs. i used to be the same. I used to consume extremely some crap and my abdomen would on no account get enormous. although then I grew slightly and that i all started noticing that my thighs are way too enormous. So I ate extra healthy, toned up, and now my physique seems plenty extra applicable. in basic terms consume extra healthy and perform a little firming - great ordinary!

That's totally normal! Even if you were 130 pounds, you'd be normal. And if you had a 32 waist, you'd still be normal. You've got nothing to worry about. Kids in school can be stupid.
