Well. Your BMI(body mass index) is 29.1. That is considered overweight. 29.9 is considered obese, so if you gain about 5 more pounds, you will be considered obese. So, It probably wouldn't hurt your health to lose a few pounds. You may not look bad, but for your health, you should weigh less. 149 pounds is the highest weight for your height that is considered "normal". You may not need to lose that much though, But you should probably talk to your doctor about a plan that will help you take off a few pounds to keep you healthy =)
