As a former high school teacher who has dealt with countless girls who fret about their weight (been there, done that myself..)

First of all, no one can say another is "too fat" -- because there's always someone else who thinks you're "just right." Plus, as ktsnake said, people carry their weight differently than others.

But, this shouldn't be an excuse to be overweight. Your goal should be to look "healthy."

If you find yourself eating pizza 2 times or more a week, french fries & other fast foods, cookies, etc... well, that's certainly NOT a healthy way to live. Forget those late night eating binges, too.

Many girls judge their weight by which stores they can shop in, ie, if they can't find anything that fits them in the Gap/ Abercrombie/Old Navy etc, then they try to lose weight. However, this is not always a good predictor.

Exercise, plus a healthy diet - these are the keys to getting (and staying) in shape. Don't make any excuses.
