Is a 112 pound 12-year-old girl overweight?

Answer 1

No that is a very normal weight. But you can always check for yourself, do a Google search for BMI (body mass index) calculator. The most accurate calculator will require age, height, weight, and date of measurement.

Answer 2

It all depends upon her height, not solely on age. If you're child is 4'10" she is still considered healthy but anything taller than that then she might considered overweight. Try using a BMI (body mass index) calculator, it will be useful for helping you determine how healthy her weight is.

Answer 3

Honestly, we look at body weight in reference to height so the question really is: Is being 5'5 and 108 unhealthy and considered overweight? Of course the answer is no. 108 is a healthy weight but please look at other area's as well for nutrition a person who weighs 108 can still be unhealthy.

Answer 4

112 pounds is not going to be overweight for a 12-year-old girl unless she is very small in height. Weight is related to height and body composition rather than age.
