Have More Weight But Do Not Look Overweight. How To Lose Weight?
What does it mean when you weight more then what you look like?
I'm about to turn 14 in 2 weeks and I'm 5'3 . Problem is I weight WAY MORE than what I look like. I weight 171 lbs but all my family and friends think i weight about 125 lbs. Can someone please explain to me what it means? And if there are any possible ways to lose that weight and how?
