Is a 70 pound 9-year-old overweight?

Answer 1

I think it all depends on the height. I wouldn't think a 12 year old would be under 4ft and a person at 4ft tall weighing 70lbs is not at all overweight.

depends on the height. 12 yr old girls are usually 5"0-5"5; and so the weight avg. would be.. 95-110 lbs.

70 lbs would be basiclly underweight.

OMG OMG! I'm 11 and I'm 90 lbs and people think I'm underweight!

Answer 2

No, that's actually really, really underweight. It gives you a BMI of 13.5. To be healthy at your height you need a MINIMUM of 106 pounds, and even then you will look stick skinny. So please stop worrying about your weight, it's really unhealthy at your age. Go eat something.

No! You are skinny! I am 4 foot 10 and an-eleven-year old girl and 77 (pounds)! No, you are not overweight,

Answer 3

* Probably underweight, but it depends on their height. My 9-year-old is 90 lbs with not a pound of fat on him. He is 4' 10." * Weight is related to height and body compositionrather than age.
