What is the appropriate weight for a 13-year-old?

Answer 1

There is no ideal weight for a 13-year-old. Weight is related to height and body composition rather than age. For more information about weight in relation to height, and to see charts showing the distribution of weights and heights of children at various stages, please see the page link, further down this page, listed under Related Questions.

Answer 2

Everybody is built differently and has different body shapes and comes from different families with different shapes. There isn't really an appropriate weight for one age because we are all different. If you think you might be overweight, it is still good to excercise, and eat healthy. If after you do that, and are still concerned, you could try talking to your doctor about it, seeing as it might be a health problem. But as I said before, everyone is different so there really isn't an average appropriate age. There is an appropriate weight just for you, but it won't be the same as someone else's.
