From the dscription you gave me i calculated your BMI (Body Mass Index).
These are the categories of BMI-

Underweight = 18.5
Normal weight = 18.5-24.9
Overweight = 25-29.9
Obesity = BMI of 30 or greater

Your BMI was 22.4 which comes under the normal weight category.

I hope that answered your question.

no, u are not overweight. at your age, gender and height its a good weight. Although it is a healthy weight u should try to cut down on pop, if u have any because well its just really crappy for you and ur teeth i found out my teeth are fading away from drinking it :'(. i am a teen girl who is 5'8 and is 140lbs. now thats a healthy weight considering my bone dencity so consider that aswell. bye hope this helped :D
