i agree with the columnist who answered below me.
muscle does weigh more than fat,and since im assuming that you are athletic,you should be fine.
but if you dont like the weigh you look then it wouldnt hurt to lose a few pounds.a good websites for teens is www.toneteen.com
hope i helped.=D

you are definately not over weight! remember muscle weighs more then fat and since you workout by doing sports im guessing you have a lot of muscle your weight is actually pretty good for your body type.

Use the mirror and dont worry so much about the numbers. I agree that more information (such as your sex) would have been useful, but even then bone structure/ build, fat% etc vary considerably from person to person.
If you dont have a lot of fat on you, you arent overweight. Irrespective of what number comes out on the scale.

are you a boy or a girl?
if you are a girl... yes you are overweight, but its just muscle pretty much. dont worry about it
if you are a boy... you are also overweight by the average weight by 3 lbs. no big deal. just keep excercising, and maybe not do as many curl ups, try running, or push ups
hope i helped
