It isn't possible to think you're skinny with 55% body fat... you must have misheard or something. What did your doctor say? (S)he would have said, "LOSE WEIGHT!" if it was actually 55%.
That is more than people on the biggest loser, and they're all like whales. (no offense. It's a fact)

Are you sure it wasn't the 55th PERCENTILE? Because that is completely different, and if so, you are fine.

[quote=Verochan]? I'm going to be 21 in a few weeks and I'm 5'1. I don't think that's short for a 14-year-old at all. o.o In fact, since you're still growing at that age, it's leaning towards the tall side.

OT: Like most people have said, watch your diet very closely. Minimize your calorie/fat intake, increase your water/fruit/vegetable intake. If you're not exercising on a daily basis, incorporate some exercise into your routine. It doesn't have to be intense, it could be something like walking 30-60 minutes a day.[/quote]

5'1 is really short for a 21 yr old don't you think? I know guys that are 6 feet at your age.

I don't think 55% is possible...

Ask your doctor, he should be the one telling you how to reduce it as he has:

1) More information about your other health conditions.
2) A health professional.
3) Most likely not a 13-19 year old teenager on a forum with no medical training whatsoever.

Usually that means you have way more fat compared to your bone+muscles. Just excersize more, eat healtheir with lots of fruits and veggies, eat meals in smaller portions and less computer time!
