I weigh almost exactly the same and the same height as you, i wear a size 6 or size S in American sizes which is considered a very average healthy size here, but i don't know what you are by Indian standards

Look at the mirror, do you like what you see?

Be the better version of yourself

You sound perfectly fine to me. If you’re really concerned, go get a DEXA scan and see your body fat percentage levels and your body fat distributions. If you have more visceral fat (stored in your abdominal area), losing weight might help not only for your looks but for your health as well. If you store fat in your hips and legs, you may not need to. The DEXA scan will give you a better idea.

Don't worry about numbers, focus on living a healthy lifestyle and the numbers will follow.

Healthy looks good on everyone, every race every gender every age etc.

Go by your BMI and how you feel about your body.

For me, 150lbs is in a safe BMI range for my height. I don’t like how I feel or look at that weight (even though I’m still healthy) so I stay under that number.

Look at yourself in the mirror undressed and ask yourself if you like what you see (in skinny / fat terms). You should be able to see if there's any room for improvement.

BMI isn't incredibly useful to gauge body composition, as fat, water and muscle all weigh differently per square inch.

Let's take 2 people, with the same age, genetics, race, height side by side, but have them have different diets, activity, workout regimen and even sleep patterns.

One can look toned, and the other can look "skinnyfat", while both of them have the same BMI and weigh the same in pounds.

So you can basically change how you look entirely, while keeping your weight, or having it move just by 1-2 pounds.

So if you don't like how you look, it won't hurt to get some extra activity in your week, clean up your diet a bit and sleep a bit more. Hope that helps.

I’d say if most of the weight comes from muscle, then your BMI is misleading and you probably are fine. I’m 5’1” and when I was 125 I looked heavy for my frame. I also have a smaller frame. I am now at 115 with some muscle and look moderately proportionate (dress size 0-2 and usually “S” on clothing. Idk if this is helpful. The most determining factor is body fat percentage, build, muscle and how comfortable you feel about it. Men don’t care about a few pounds more as long as you have a great personality, are confident and know your value as a woman.

I’m 4’11 and vary between 120-125. According to BMI, I am overweight. However, I’m definitely not lol. I actually feel really uncomfortable and unhealthy when I’m any smaller than like 118.

Depends. By pure weight and height, yes. You’re fat. But if you’re a little bit chubby and you voluptuous, it’s fine.

Even if pure voluptuous, you’d probably be a total bombie if you weighed 115.

BMI is garbage metric, though. I have an athletic build, but my BMI says I weigh too much because I’m 5’7”. BMI doesn’t distinguish between muscle and fat.
