How many calorie should i eat if i want to lose weight and I'm a 14yr old girl who is 5ft 5?

Answer 1

Ok well i just checked her B.M.I which stands for Body Max Idex her B.M.I is 21.0 placing her at the 75th percintile. She is at a healthy weight. For her to be at a risk of becoming overweight she would be at the 85th percintile. For you to take a look for yourself go to Google and type in child and teen B.M.I and click the first website on the page.

Answer 2

Well im a 17yr old girl and im 5'5" too so... I try to eat about 1500 a day. Bearing in mind I don't do very much exercise I find it pretty easy to lose weight/maintain weight on that (about 125 lbs). But if you do more exercise like go to the gym/walk a lot I'd say you need about 2000 calories. Actaully I think that's about right. 2000 calories because you're 14 as well so you're still growing so you need more. But good calories. Like vegetables and fruit and carbs. And chicken. Its lean. Good luck!!

Answer 3

You shouldnt be calculating your amount of food take in at that age because you are still growing so you need to give your body alot more nutrience that an adult would so it can grow.

And as long as you are eating healthy meals every day and exersising for at least an hour every day you will have a healthy lifestyle!

I'm fourteen to just so you know...and I'm also 5,9 so thats wierd ha! Hope this helped:)

Answer 4

My best answer for you would be to go to a dietician(if that's spelled correctly) to get that answer

Answer 5

you should be eating about 2,000 calories a day because you're a little to small for your age group so you need to make sure your getting all the right nutrition
