A member asked:
I'm 5'3 and 125 pounds and i always feel chubby. is this a normal weight or not?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It is slightly: Above your ideal weight for height, your bmi of 22 is normal. If you feel "chubby" try increasing your daily activity or mildly decreasing your caloric intake. Better still, do both.
