Not at all. You are perfectly normal. In fact, an average 5'8" person should be around 130 or so pounds.

For 5' 8" and 128 Lbs, I think you are just right.But you may want to watch your weight so that it does not get any bigger. No diet required except some discipline. Visit my webpage for more info. http://www.fatlossfast.orgCheers, Dr Jo Johnson

The measure used to determine if people are overweight, underweight or normal weight is the BMI or Body Mass Index. Being 5'8" and weighing 128lbs puts you at a BMI of 19.5 which is normal weight. Normal weight is between 18.5 and 24.9 on the BMI. So you're actually towards the lower part of normal weight, which is good. You are actually at what is medically considered the perfect weight.

Not at all! Unless your a model, haha. Don't be insecure about yourself. If a guy loves you he should love you for who you are not what you look like, because looks fade. Personality doesn't.
