I'm assuming you're a girl?It might be the number that's making you feel fat.I doubt you are. With how much exercise you're getting, I think you have a lot of muscle weight. (( Muscle weighs more than fat. ))If it's really annoying you, ask your doctor.

Hi,When it comes to weight management and doing it successfully i have found you have to have expert advice. I never succeeded until I got educated on my health and fitness and also my workouts.I failed many times in my quest to lose weight. But finally I got it all together and succeeded with finding my ideal weight. The difference was getting really good advice and getting completely motivated to take action. This site helped me a lot because it is has great workouts and diet tips. http://locatereviews.com/1578591402Good luckI wish you well in your quest to get fit

No, healthy. You probably look great! You exercise so much too, keep it up as you get older though.

You sound perfectly healthy and fit. Not at all fat. Athletes tend to weigh more because of muscle mass being heavier than fat.

Lose Weight with these FoodsLose weight with sweet potatoes. These orange spuds contain cellulose and hemicelluloses, insoluble fibers that make you feel full faster so you eat less.Burn fat with chili pepper.

Their calories come from healthy sources like dairy and fruit, not refined sugar.Get rid of extra calories by sipping cranberry juice. The ascorbic acid in cranberries helps thin liver bile, making it easier for the organ to emulsify fat so it can be quickly flushed out of the sytem rather than stored in cells.Olives and Avocados are rich in monounsaturated fats that induce satiation even sooner.Nix snack attack with kidney beans. These satisfying legumes are an excellent source of soluble fiber, which slows digestion, keeping you full longer.Prevent hibernation fat by sipping Green Tea. To counter act a binge, keep your body's fat-burning furnace running on full blast by drinking green tea. Green tea contains caffeine and the antioxidant epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), which is proven to boost metabolic rate.

Lose up to 40% more weight with Calcium-rich foods. Researchers links calcium with lower stress-hormone cortisol production (cortisol switches the body into a fat-storing mode), and it has been proven that women who increase their intake lose up to 40% more weight than calcium avoiders. Sources of Calcium include yogurt, ricotta cheese and spinach.Curb overeating with Grapes. Enjoying 1 cup each day can boost insulin sensitivity by 7%, and that translates into a 42% drop in erratic blood sugar, binge eating and weight concerns, USDA studies suggest.

if you're doing all that excercise, its probably muscle not fatscales aren't always truthful; numbers don't really matternext time you see your doctor, ask about it because he'll be able to tell you your body fat % and he'll tell you what options you have and such.
