Is a 140 pound 12-year-old overweight?

Answer 1

1) No, you are actually very healthy, unless you are really, really short. 2) Well i am 12 and i am 5'5 but i weigh 98 pounds. I have researched if i am fat (because i feel it) and im really quite healthy. Personally i think if you gain a bit of weight you would be perfect.

140 pounds in weight is not necessarily overweight for a 12-year-old boy or girl. Weight is related to height and body composition. Therefore, you may be an ideal weight in relation to your height and body composition. We would need to know more details.

Answer 5

In general, no. In some cases, though, it may very well be. When determining whether you're a healthy weight or not, lots of things come into play (height, activity level, frame size, amount of muscle mass, etc.). That's why it's best to find out from your doctor if you're overweight or not. You can't really tell based on just weight and age alone.

Answer 6

Yes, unfortunately, that is considered to be overweight. But do NOT be discouraged! It doesn't matter what you look like! It's your personality. Good luck! You also could start a diet☻

Answer 7

Height would be the deciding factor.

Answer 8

no really!
