Answers:
If you have a big stomach and can grab bundles of fat, or cant see your feet when you stand straight and look down then yes you are fat.

7 to 8 stone isnt much though, so I guess you cant be too fat if fat at all. If you think you are fat, then consider excersing more by walking, playing sports at school, play outdoor games with friends etc, and also have a look at the foods you eat. Sweets, fried foods, fizzy drinks etc are obviously fattening, but fruit, vegtables, meat, fish etc arent very fattening if they arent fried.

Having a double chin can mean you might be overweight but also it might just be the way you are designed. Health Question & Answer

You are not very exact about your height/weight. If I take 180cm and 7 stone you are actually slightly underweight, if I take 150cm and 8 stone you are in the low to mid range of normal. So I guess you are somewhere in the middle.
