Am i fat? boys in my grade tell me i am?

Question

Im almost 11 years old. im 4 ft 11 inches and I weigh about 150 pounds. is this normal? when i look at myself i dont think im fat but people in my grade tell me i am.

Answer 1

ok, so that is great that u r so confident within ur self (really i am very impressed). and bc of this i believe u will do this properly. u need to talk to ur mum and let her know that u would like to see a nutritionist. it is really lots of fun having help and losing weight/body fat - and so easy.

good luck :):):)

Answer 2

yes u r overweight

but ur still growing dont worry

everyone used t call me fat too but i got tall an now im only 140 lbs

its okay as long as u exercise right and dont eat junk food

good luck =]

Answer 3

Yes you are overweight. But you're still growing so I wouldn't worry about it that much.

Answer 4

Your a little overweight for your age, but at your age you shouldn't worry about it, you might loose it when you hit puberty, and if not loose it after.

Answer 5

no you are not a normal person you are too fat than an 11 year boy. you should work hard to contol your over weight.

Answer 6

I'm very glad you don't think you are fat. You are overweight, but that shouldn't make you feel bad. When I was in jr high I remember being 155 and I always hated how I looked. I lost a good bit of weight in high school, btw. Don't worry! Just be healthy and happy with who you are. :)

Answer 7

Nahh... hun! Dont worry about it!

If they say you are.. just say that you are happy and you like yourself! Someone once told me.. that I cant go through life, living the way everybody else wants you to. Live your life the way you want too! I am overweight too.. infact im way over my weight should be lol. But I dont think I look bad. You cant tell it anyways.. lol     Live your life the way you want! If you dont like your weight or something.. just start excersising and eat healthy! No eating after 7:30pm.. if you can help it! Dont think of it as a diet... just think of it as 10 pounds healthier (:

I hope I helped..

good luck sweetie (:

p.s. your young.. and you are still growing! you shouldnt be worrying about what other people think! (:

Answer 8

When I read these questions it really touches me because I think of my own insecurities I’ve had and the pressures that the world tries to put on us. And I have to tell you the Answer, the Cure, the Security that will make you not just healthy but also truly happy is Jesus. I need to tell you that. The best thing I can tell you to do is pray. You see, the skinniest people or even the biggest can all be in the same miserable boat. If having a “great” body makes people happy (and it doesn’t) then why are so many people out there still grumpy and mean even with their “normal” weights. I know that God loves us, he wants good for us more than we do for ourselves. He wants us to be healthy and happy. He is also kind. If the kids at your school are making fun of you then that is WRONG and you should pray for them too. We all need it.

I pray you have peace and true health.
