Okay, people who weigh under a 100 need to stop worrying about your weight. You guys are fine. I on the other hand..am 4'11", 13 years old, and am a 100 pounds.

1 stone is 14 lbs.
120.2 stones would be about 1680 lbs.

120 lbs at 5,7 is a very good weight.

the average weight is 120.

I'm 13 and i weigh 87 pounds. I guess i'm really under weight. I'm also 5'3". But I eat more than most people my age.


don't worry if it makes you feel any better I'm exactly the same, I'm 13 almost 14, I'm really underweight, (like my arms are so skinny I always wear jackets and stuff) and I eat a lot too. mom says it is cos I have a fast metabolism whatever that is, and i'm really embarrsed in front of my friends and my little sister who is way younger but is bigger and way more developed! help! :oops: but well don't feel too bad you're not the only one :)

your weight sounds ok.

being "in shape" has nothing to do with your weight. being in shape has to do with physical fitness. like how many push-ups or sit-ups you can do, or how fast you can run a mile.

i promise you that your weight is totally normal.
you are most likely at the perfect weight.
it just depends all on your height.

All of you children and teenagers asking if your weight is normal or not, read this:


Children are not small adults when it comes to weight and weight management. Use of Body Mass Index (BMI) and weight classifications specifically for children shows how different children are from adults.

BMI-For-Age – Only For Children
Researchers around the world develop their conclusions on children and weight using the same Body Mass Index (BMI) formula that is used for adults. In adults, the same BMI chart applies to everyone. Because children grow rapidly, and boys and girls grow at different rates, children's BMI charts are based on age and gender.

BMI for children is referred to as BMI-for-age because weight classifications are different at every age.1 A child's BMI, derived from height and weight measurements, can be plotted onto a gender-specific BMI-for-age growth chart and compared to standards for the child's age. Evaluation of BMI-for-age is based on 'percentile', meaning the percentage of children of the same gender and age whose BMI is lower than that of the reference child. For example, for a child at the 60th percentile for BMI-for-age, 60% of children of the same gender and age have a lower BMI.

The BMI-for-age chart helps differentiate between a normal weight gain during growth and excess weight gain. Looks can be deceiving when it comes to weight in children, so healthcare professionals rely on the BMI-for-age chart to guide them. For example, it is not uncommon for infants and toddlers to look 'chubby' but have a BMI in the healthy range.

BMI-for-age is not as simple as weight, but it is a more accurate measure of excess body weight. It corresponds well to levels of body fat and can be used to follow body size from childhood through adolescence and into adulthood.


If you've read what's written above and you want to find out what your BMI-for-age is, use the following calculator:

http://apps.nccd.cdc.gov/dnpabmi/Calculator.aspx

After you use the calculator you can also view your results on a BMI-for-age Percentile Growth Chart.

Hope this helps.
