How much should a average 11 year old should weigh?

Answer 1

The teen years are difficult at best. If you're concerned about your weight, my guess is that you're being teased at school. As hard as it sounds, try to ignore it.

The best answer I can give you is that your weight is probably okay for your height. If you're concerned, check with a Doctor Who can weigh you accurately and discuss your health.

Some people weigh more. Some weigh less. There are people who love each kind of shape, with the caveat that you have to love yourself first.

You're too young to have to deal with this right now, and what you're going to end up doing is creating a life-long cycle of food issues. Your weight will yo-yo over your whole life and you'll never be happy with your weight.

Never.

It's more important right now to just stay physically active and love the body you have. A lot of models are either drug addicts, airbrushed, or both. They don't have jobs - all they do all day is work out and eat nothing. That's not life. That's a pale imitation of life. That's all most models are - empty shells.

Love yourself for who you are, and happiness will follow you. No matter what you enjoy in life, there are others out there who enjoy the same things. Being thin will NOT make you popular with either boys or girls. Being nice, having a positive attitude, and being involved in extra-curricular activities are more important than dress size or scale numbers.

If you absolutely must go on a diet for medical reasons, then you should follow your physician's advice.
