Get Skinnier? Help? Thanks!?

Question

Hello.

I am 5'8 and 115.

I have gained like 5-10 lb over the past years and would like to get it off.

How would I be able to get off the extra weight?

Answer 1

Gain 10 more pounds, you don't have a small frame, I think you have to be shorter to have a small frame (I could be wrong)

Answer 2

That's a normal weight for that height.

Answer 3

you should gain more weight about 120-125 . your underweigth  

Answer 4

Wow.  I am 5'8" and weigh 125, and people tell me I'm skinny.... I think that you are probably okay in that department.  If you are like me at all, it isn't a matter of losing weight, simply having weight in the places you want it.... if that makes sense.. i.e. instead of having love-handles, I want a butt, and instead of a little bit on my stomach, I wanted some actual thighs.  

I have almost achieved that, and all I did was add some light running and workouts to my life, and I don't worry about food... I don't count calories taken in or burned, I don't worry about how many times a week I am at the gym, nor how many miles I can run in a certain time.   And it worked out pretty well for me.  If you are really h**l bent on losing weight, though, talk to your doctor, because absolutely NOTHING should be done weight wise without his/her advice being given.    

Answer 5

I"m your same height and im 119...I think you're fine

Answer 6

Answer 7

thats a perfect weight even with 10 lbs added on. trust me... any smaller and you'll be emaciated
