Am i overweight???

Alright. I'm wondering if I'm overweight or not???

Within the last month or two my Belly/Waist Line Has Gotten Pretty big.
Got myself a tape, Measured my Waist, Hips and the Middle of the stomach. Heres the Measurements:

Height of 5 Ft 3/ Weight 155-160 pounds (depending of fluctuations)
Waist (Right below belly button) 36 Inches.
Stomach (Right Below the Belly button) 37-38 Inches.
Wrist 7 Inches.
Biceps/upper arm 14 Inches
Fore Arm 12 Inches.

Im Currently a SIZE 12 sometimes I manage a 10 depending on clothing styles.

Im 18 year old. My Belly Looking big for sure , but overall I dont know if Im overweight for my Age and Would like to know what everyone Thinks. Am I only slightly above? or Very? Or average. Id say most my weight is at my stomach so keep that in mind when reviewing. Thanks

Here is a Pic of my Waist line BELOW/ Ill let u all be the judge

Can’t answer if your considered fat. As long as you have a healthy BMI, your body is proportionate and your DR thinks your cool, I’d say your grand.

bmi calculators would probably put you as slightly 'overweight' but it doesn't take into account a lot of things. don't worry, be happy

Yep, you are fat/overweight. Unless a lot of that weight is muscle mass. Do you work out?

I'm 5'7 / 95 pounds, idk my measurements.

Alright Well why kind of things doesn’t it take into account?? And yeah my Bmi was 30 percent last time I looked. What’s yours to get an idea of things.. and even so without the BMI percent still think in day to day life. There’s certain weights that is considered fat chubby or obese and I can easily judge others weight shut not my own PS your weight sounds Healthy 27inch waists fckin tiny

whoa...mate..your dimensions are like bang on to each other. That means your body is square, and you're only 5'3 You're not "fat" but you're oddly shaped tbh. Like a thumb? Squat and stout, it sounds like. You asked. I answered.

I'm 6' and 80kg, I'll check my measurements soon cos I've been working on a goal.

Then you could probably lose some weight.

It is skinny, but it really suits me. Some people look good underweight, some people look good curvy.
