Honey you aren't fat at all.
That is a normal weight for your height.
If you really want to stay in shape just make sure you exercise. Walking is good exercise.

You are fat and you need to start throwing up after each meal. Then you wouldnt have to cut anything back!

I think that for your age you are limit, try to do some exercise

avoid sugar

no just right

no, you're not too fat at all. your BMI is most assuredly VERY low; honestly from those numbers alone you sound like you're on the skinny side!

Weight management is about long-term success. People who lose weight quickly by crash dieting or other extreme measures usually gain back all (and often more) of the pounds they lost because they haven't permanently changed their habits. Therefore, the best weight management strategies are those that you can maintain for a lifetime.
