Hi!
Given your height and weight, your BMI is 21. This falls in the range of normal weight. So, there is no need o lose weight further. Maintain this weight. However, if you feel the need to tone up your body, include some stretches and strengthening exercises. Take care!

The medical advice given should not be considered a substitute for medical care provided by a doctor who can examine you. The advice may not be completely correct for you as the doctor cannot examine you and does not know your complete medical history. Hence this reply to your post should only be considered as a guiding line and you must consult your doctor at the earliest for your medical problem.
