weight?

Question

i'm 13 years old and my height is 5"4 and i weigh around 118 pounds last time i checked a couple months ago. am i overweight? i'm bigger than all of my friends and my weight is starting to be all i can think about! please, be honest? how can i lose weight?

Answer

You are just fine. You don't need to lose weight at the age of 13. You will thin out with puberty and I don't think 118 is overweight at all for any height over 5 feet. Stop obsessing.

Answer

If you really want to put yourself at ease, calculate your BMI (body mass index) then look up a chart for healthy BMIs. I can guarantee that you're completely normal and not overweight at all. And you're still young! Your body will keep changing so don't worry about it. You and your friends will develop at different rates :)

Answer

No you're not over weight. I'm 5'1 and my doctor wants me to be 115 which is the heavier side of healthy. I'm currently 88. If I'm supposed to be 115 than your healthy weight range is probably between 115 and 130. You're not over weight. Don't stress. And don't get obsessed. You don't want to end up developing anorexia. It is a terrible life style and if I could go back I would have never started restricting, because now I can't stop

Answer

Your tiny Hun . Don't you worry about that is skinny to most people

Answer

No. No. No.  Not overweight at all!

​The best things you can do to look your best is to have confidence and be healthy!  Eat well and exercise and...laugh!  You'll find those 3 go a long way in life and you'll slowly stop comparing yourself as much to others. It DOES get better :)
