 5'4 and 7 stone? Well i was 5'3 and about 7 and a half stone when i got married at 18, and i was skinny! Shoulder blades poking out in my off the shoulder dress. I'm now 10 stone! But apparently my bmi is only just over normal. So i wouldn't say you are overweight, maybe even a bit underweight. But i know before we have children us girls are usually a bit on the slim side and its accepted as normal.
I had a guy ask me why i was so ugly when i was about 12, and i have never forgotten that, but i'm 37 now. And he was no oil painting, so i learnt to accept that we cant be gorgeous to everyone!

 If you are 5.4 1/2 and 100 lbs, you are probably a wee bit on the skinny side of normal, not the fat side. The person who called you a "fat cow" probably did it because he knows most women are weight conscious, so he was being a bully. I'd ignore the idiotic comments and stop worrying quite so much about your weight. Be thankful that you enjoy good health and have a lot of truthful friends and try not to let small minded people with an axe to grind ruin your day.

 7 stone 2 pounds?
Hang on while I convert that... That's 100 pounds, which is only like 45-46 kilos. Dear me love, you're not even CLOSE to fat. If anything, you're probably closer to underweight.
Just because someone called you fat doesn't mean you are. They could have just as easily called you smelly or spotty or stupid, and that doesn't mean you are any of those things either. It was just something said as an insult - take it with a grain of salt, and don't let it get to you.

I promise you, that you are deffinately not overweight. If anythink you are slightly underweight for your height. You are very slim. If you lost anymore weight you would look anerexic. So please stop thinking your fat, and deffinatly dont try to get any slimmer because you won't look very nice.
