Is 145 pound overweight for an 11-year-old girl who is 4 feet and 10 inches tall?

Answer 1

According to your BMI (Body Mass Indicator), if you weighed 145 pounds then you wouldn't be overweight anymore.

Other factors must be taken into account, such as male/female, and height for an accurate measurement of your BMI. Have your parents contact a doctor if you or they feel you might have a problem. It is better to be aware of it now and try to change your eating habits than it is to hold off and get worse.

So before you take somebody's advice go see a professional will tell you the correct answer.

I'm 11 years old (turning twelve) and in the sixth grade. I'm five foot three and between 100-106 pounds, depending on the day. I'm not sure whether 150 if overweight or if 106 pounds is underweight but my guess would be 150 is overweight because that's about the average weight for a full grown man.
