I don't think you over weight!
I'm 16, a little shorter then you and I also weigh the same...
actually to tell the truth, I use to weigh 160 sumthing, but I managed to lose 30 pounds..., my life it just great now, I'm a more sociable person, and guys ask me out, I've been loving myself... soo don't worry, your perfect the way you are, your good enough, I've worked soo hard to get where you are now...

thats exactly my situation. im 14 also with a hight of 5'5" and I weigh 130 lbs. everyone including school nurses tell me that I am a good weight. however, my doctor says that I am overweight for im supposed to weigh only 121. I understood what she meant though because I had some ( but barely any ) fat on my legs and stomach. I think that your weight really depends on your body structure not height and age because I think 130 is a good weight but its not if you have small bones are are usually petite.

my advice is check with a doctor because they know what they are talking about. if you do end up overweight though, dont stress about losing weight and dont try to be bulimic or annorexic. just eat right, exercise, and be patient.

good luck with everything
