Am I overweight for my age?

Question

I'm 13, 5'7 and I weigh 125ish pounds, I dance 5 days a week for 4 hours and I eat at least 2 times a day. I'm all the girls in my class are sticks and and I don't knowif i'm overweight for my age anymore...

Answer 1

you arent overweight. dancing builds lots of muscle, so thats probably where most of your pounds come from. also, dont compare yourself to the other dancers, every one is built differently.

Answer 2

If you feel good about your body and are eating at least somewhat healthy and arent having weight-related health problems, dont worry about it....unless youre also having trouble getting laid

Answer 3

No your fine. The other girls in your class are probably under weight and starving themselves. So I really wouldn't be jealous of them if I were you, because there are many health risks to being underweight.

Answer 4

nope

Answer 5

N0000:]you are perfectly healthy.And don't listen to people who tell you that you are fat.You should never change the person that you are just cause others tell you to be who YOU want to be! don't let people walk all over you they are just jealous that they do not look as great as you do:]*

Answer 6

no not all u can avtually goto a site and type in height and weight and and it will tell u the average and idk the site but look it up on google goodluck

Answer 7

nah. you're a good weight.

Answer 8

NO! You are very tall. You are not over weight. If you feel like you are over weight talk to a doctor about going on a diet, i dont think you need one though. You dance a lot, if you dance that much you are not over weight. If you think you are overweight, you arent cuz you are so tall. You know what also, muscle weighs 3x more than fat. You are dancing so much you probally have a lot of muscle. I do too

Answer 9

you're 5'7 and only 13!?!? wow, i'm a year older and two inches shorter. but considering your height, and the fact that muscle weighs more than fat (since you dance so much), i really don't think you're over weight.

Answer 10

Not at alll! Your perfect. Don't change a thing.

Answer 11

Nope, nope, nope. I'm 15, the exact same height and weight...and by most standards, I'm thin. Not freakishly skinny, like some girls I know, but slender and healthy. And dancing should make you even more so. =D

Answer 12

No, actually you are perfect and healthy! Usually, Dancers are extremly skinny so don't worry.

If you are worried about your weight then cut out any empty calories such as candy and eat more fruits and veggies. Also, don't compare yourself to other girls because you are your own person and your body is completely different than anyone elses.
