Is it possible to be underweight and chubby?
So just a thought. Ive been trying to gain more muscle but Im still called chubby by most girls. Im about 87-90 lbs 5'4" with a 22" waist, i know my weight isnt right but i still need to tone up. Is it really possible to be underweight and fat?

Yes it is possible. It is also possible to be overweight and lean. It is how your body's lean muscle to fat ratio is. In other words, a large portion of your body weight is composed of fat rather than lean muscle tissue. Exercise and diet can change this.

yes it is possible to be underweight and fat. This can happen if you have more fat than muscle so your body is out of porportion and lacks a figure. TO tone up, I suggest you walk for 20 min each day (you can jog or run if you like doing those better) and do these toning exercises to tone up your muscles: pushup, situp, plank, crunches, 10 min on bike or stationary bike. Good luck hun :)

87-90lbs at 5'4" is underweight. Young women, especially those that are your peers, are literally the worst judge of anything related to physical appearance.
What they say has much less to do with how much you weigh or how you look and much more to do with their desire to mess with you mentally.
It is impossible to be underweight and fat, as they are contradictory. It's more important to be physically healthy than it is to maintain a certain weight.

No, and those girls that call you chubby are obviously out of their minds.

these people who tell you you're chubby must be exaggerating
