Expert: Lea - 5/21/2007

Question
I am 13 and 5"4 which is very tall for my age and I weigh 118 pounds. I have had
people call me fat and skinny in the same day. I was just wondering if you could
tell me if I was over weight. Should I go on a diet? Please help!


Answer
Jesse,
You are in your healthy normal weight range.  See this site for further details: http://www.nhlbisupport.com/bmi/
To be overweight at your height, the weight is 150 pounds.  So please do not worry, you are at a perfect weight!  Good luck,
Lea
