How much would the average girl my height and age weigh?

Answer 1

Nope. Im 5ft1 140 and have a 26 inch waist.

Answer 2

No.

Answer 3

According to your Body Mass Index you are perfectly a healthy weight and you probably have great muscle tone too with all that exercise.  The average girl that is 5"6 is between 130-150 lbs.  Don't worry, you are perfectly normal :)

Answer 5

It would seem to me that some of your weight is due to muscle. I think you sound fine.

Answer 7

I wouldn't say fat, just a little bit over weight. You could stand to lose about 10-15 pounds. Don't do anything drastic, just try to eat healthier and have smaller portions of food.

Answer 11

According to the CDC(Centers for Disease Control), the BMI(Body Mass Index) for a 13 year old girl is 22.6.  This puts you in the 82nd percentile.  5th - 85th percentile is considered healthy.  I suggest you keep doing what you are doing now (same diet and exercise).  If you still feel "fat" then talk to your doctor or nurse.  Keep in mind that it is "normal" for a girl your age to have some issues with body image.  You are going through a lot of changes, and many other kids can be very critical.  Also, the media does not do a good job of portraying healthy body image (many skinny celebrities, etc.).  However, if you are really fixated on this, there may be a psychological issue.  Again, talk to your Dr.  I hope this helps.
