Firstly it is important to identify the issue, only then it can be solved. There is no such thing as 'Skinny Fat' Fat is Fat, it is the extra calories that you have consumed, that your body does not need, hence it gets stored around your waist and hips mainly. Your weight not appropriate for your height and age. Your BMI is at 26.3, that is in 'Overweight' category. Right now you need to be around 63-65 kgs, hence the excess 11 kgs are the bulges you are seeing on your body. You need to reduce your calorie intake, increase exercise, this will result in gradual reduction of weight. Increase your fitness levels.
