    Aw that's mean of your friend! I'm similar to you- 5' 4" and 147lbs. I'm trying to lose weight but I guess it depends on your build. Either way, 140lbs is a perfectly healthy weight for our height so I wouldn't worry about it!!

    Only you know if you want to lose weight. Who cares what your 'friend' said? Are you're happy with your body as it is? If so, you dont need to lose weight!

    You are gorgeous! You are athletic, healthy and in fantastic shape. I felt 'fat' when I was 18 and was a competitive downhill skier and swimmer, I weighed the same as you. i just wish I had more confidence and had a better body image at your age. I have struggled with my body image forever! I am now 38, 5'4, 160 lbs and working really hard to lose weight. I am still very athletic, so I have a lot of muscle mass... You are perfect the way you are! You are beautiful, flaunt your gorgeous physique, you are healthy and I would love to be a fit 140 lbs woman! :flowerforyou:
