What is the average weight for a 12-year-old girl?

Answer 1

There is no ideal or perfect weight for a 12-year-old girl because weight is related to height and body composition,rather than age.

Here are some examples:

• I am a twelve-year-old, and I am 55 kg and I am around 5 ft tall.
• If you look at the growth charts below (the Centers for Disease Control link shows a direct link from their website for girls age 2-20), the average weight for a 12-year-old girl (meaning 50th percentile) is about 94 pounds.
• I'm a 12-year-old and I weigh 137 lbs but I'm tall. For others maybe 95 lbs-100 lbs.
• I am 12 years old and I am 5' 1." I weigh 89 pounds.
• I am 12 and I weigh 104 pounds but I am tall.
• I am also 12 and I weigh exactly 100 lbs.
• I'm a 12-year-old girl and I weigh 120 pounds. It really depends on your height.
• I am 12 years old 5' 4." Yes, it really does depend on height.
• I'm 5 ft 5 in and I weigh 112. It really depends on your height.
• I'm 12 years old and I weigh 8 stone 2 pounds.
• I'm 12 and I am 4 ft and I weigh 80 pounds but I am short.
• I am 12, I am 5' 5" and big boned, and I weigh 180 pounds.
• I am 12 years old and I weigh 103 pounds.
• I'm 12 years old and I weigh 110 pounds.
• I am a 12-year-old girl and I weigh 8 stone 4 pounds.
• I'm a 12 year old girl and I weigh 82.9 pounds. I am 5' 2."
• I am 12 years old and I am a girl. I weigh 34 kilos. I am underweight.
• I'm 12 years old, about 4 ft 10 or 11 inches and I weight 74 pounds. Your weight really depends on your height.

Answer 2

Although there can be an "average" weight in relation to height, there is no perfect weight for a 12-year-old girl. This is because weight is related to height and body composition rather than just age.

Here are some example answers from various WikiAnswer users:

• I agree with the above comment. If you are 5 ft 2 inch you may weigh 6 st or 7st it just depends on how tall you are and your body composition. All is beautiful. You could be tall and skinny, short and skinny, small and muscular, or tall and muscular.
• All is fine if you are healthy. So be happy with your body, after all, its the only one you'll get!
• I am a 12 year old and I am 5 ft 4 1/2 in and I weigh 165 pounds.
• I'm just over 9 stone but if you are under don't worry.
• I'm 12 and about 5 ft. I'm just under 6 st.
• I'm 12 and I weigh 7 stone and a bit and I'm 5' 5" but I am quite skinny. It depends on your height and body type really.
• I am 11, 5' 3 and 8.5 stone. I am curvy but not fat. Everyone is beautiful. Do not worry it is just a number
• There is no specific weight. Do not worry about your weight at 12. It depends on your height and muscles
• I am 12 and weigh about 125 pounds. I am 5 ft. I'm not obese, just a little outta shape, I would say that the average weight for a 12-year-old should be at around 90-110 lbs.
• It all depends on how tall you are and your body structure.
• I am 12 and I am only 70 pounds. I am about 4'4''. Usually shorter girls are bigger, but not me. I am underweight.
• I am 12 and I weigh 105 lbs. It all depends on height.
• I'm 12 and 5' 6" and my average weight is is 130 to 148. Also, if you're overweight it doesn't mean that you are unhealthy.
• I'm turning 12. I am 5' 3" and weigh 112 but it all depends on height and we all shouldn't even be worrying about being skinny or fat because were all perfect in our own ways.
• I am almost 12. I am exactly 5' and I weigh 131 pounds.

So, as stated earlier, there is no ideal or perfect weight for a 12-year-old girl (or a person of any age) because weight is related to height and body composition rather than just age.

Therefore, for in-depth information about:

1. The distribution of weights and heights of children at various stages
2. The causes of unwanted weight gain
3. The best diet and lifestyle to reduce or prevent unwanted weight gain in children or teenagers

Answer 4

It is perfectly normal for girls your age to feel thick, however 120 is normal, and is actually much less than other girls your age weigh. Don't get upset, or worried :) 120lbs is perfect your your age! My little sister is 13 and 120lbs and she looks great. And when I was 12 I weighed the same thing as you did. So it's perfectly normal so nothing to fret about! I am 12&1/2 4 of my friends weigh from 113-125..... i think that is a fine weight it is great for your age. I am 5'8 and 13 and 120 lbs and my sister says that I am skinny.

Answer 5

At The Most 5'3 No Taler Than That I'm 11 And I'm Only 4'9

Hi I am 12 and i am 5'3 and weight 108 pounds i am very active and my sister thinks i want to lose weight and i barely have any fat anywhere i would say the average weight would be 100-130 because everyone is different some have more musle and less some are more tall and short so dont feel bad if you are over this you are growing so that is very normal and healthy.

Answer 6

95-110

But remember if you are over or under this limit, it all depends on your height, bone structure, and genes. It doesn't mean that 95-110 is the ideal weight for a twelve year old, its just the most common I guess.

Answer 7

95 to 110 lbs. is considered average.

But hey, if you're a little over that's just fine! Don't feel that you're too fat!

Answer 8

An average 12 year old girl would weigh between 95 and 105 lbs. The average height of a girl this age is between 60 and 63 inches.

Answer 9

No it is actually around average I think.
