No not at all! You're perfectly normal for your height and age. I disagree - unless you are an athlete. 110-115 is ideal. Yes you are over the limit, so you need to decide how to handle it. It is harder to correct a problem later than right now. I'll vote for you to win this battle! It makes a difference if you are a boy or girl, if you have big bones or small. But you are in the average range of 100 to 136 for your age and weight. Go to a BMI calculator to learn more. Many medical experts use the Body Mass Index (BMI) to calculate the appropriate weight for a person. They recommend that the BMI not be over 30. To determine BMI, the formula is: weight divided by height2, then multiplied by 703. So in your case, you would divide 130 (weight) by 3844 (height squared), then multiply by 703, which gives you a BMI of 23.77. So according to these numbers, you are not overweight.

At 17 years of age, the normal weight for someone 5' 4" tall (162.5 cm) is 110 to 120 pounds (50-55 kg) for a female and 130 to 150 pounds (59-68 kg) for a male. Most female teens are weight-conscious, and many feel they weigh too much when the exact opposite may be the case.

Are you overweight if youre 12 and youre 5 feet and 1 inch and 130 pounds?

To get a Body Mass Index (BMI) you convert your figures into kilograms and meters and use the formula: Weight (in kilograms) DIVIDED BY Height squared (in meters) That means that the BMI for the above stated individual is about 24.5, which is within the average range between 20 to 25. Thus not overweight, but getting there. However, it's worth noting that these figures aren't as accurate for children and teenagers.
