I am skinny-fat! Help!!?

I'm 19, 5ft 5", and weigh 107lbs (7stone 9). I have a bmi of just below 18.5 and everyone always calls me skinny. The thing is, I have a body fat percentage of 24% which I think sounds quite high. Although I am thin, I'm extremely unfit and my thighs & bum are quite flabby. I also eat quite unhealthily. I'm just wondering why I don't actually look fat on the outside? And also what can I do to tone up, and just generally feel fitter and healthier?! I'm sick of people saying ohh your so thin when I know I'm actually really unhealthy and fat on the inside haha! :)

    Add activity to your life.

    Try to add 15 minutes of exercise every day, and four out of the seven days in a week make sure those 15 minutes are hard work exercises.

    You can start by not airing your problems on the internet, go outside and walk then run and do it everyday. Drink more water instead of other things and eat anything you want but in smaller portions.
