Yes.
She should lose 50-60 pounds.


blog girl

I´d say yes, but I can´t tell without knowing for sure. She should probably consult a doctor. I have fought my weight all my life, so I know how hard it its...good luck to her.

well sorry to tell this but she's over weight, lil bit too heavy for her age, I'm 19 and she's heavier than me.

She is overweight. For her height she should weigh between 90 and 110 lbs and at thirteen she should be far away from the large end of that scale.


..
well it depends.if she has a lot of muscle then that could weigh her down. is she active or a couch potato. cuz if she is a couch potato she is over weight


Annuhh
You should type her age, weight and height into a BMI index.

go to mypyramid.gov i dont think she's overweight but this site will help her eat healthier

Technically She is over weight, but not obese. Its hard to lose weight as a pre-teen, she needs to be around 110-125 for her height and age.


clcalifornia
she is overweight. But, at this age it happens. She will gain height and out grow this phase unless she doesn't take good care of herself.

Eat smaller portions. Drink lots of water. Eat vegtables and fruit. Exercise. And rare fast food or fatty foods.

Everyone carries weight differently.

some people at her weight are a size 9 and others are a size 18.

Yea, a little.. but she's 13, she'll hit another growth spurt and grow into that weight. it's an awkward age because that happens to a lot of people. Just be her friend and if she's uncomfortable with it then maybe ask her if she wants to join a gym and take some fun fitness classes with you or something, and maybe try to eat at home more instead of picking up fast food or ordering pizza when you guys hang out :) Help her get into some healthier habits now and she'll carry them through her life!


ashly
s she z overweight........... tel her 2 go walking regularly for 45min daily n she'll b fine n don go 4 rash dieting as its bad 4 health .........

yes she is 5'0 her weight should be in between 120 - 130


Nikki DV
yeah. if you go to msn.com there is a section where you can enter you height, weight,and age and it will tell you the weight group you are in.

for her height she would be concidered obese

the weight levels go in this order;

-under weight
-notmal
-overweight
-fat/obese

Luckily, since she is still young she can take steps now to be more healthy and to be at a better weight!
She seems like she is a little bit heavier than is best for her height, but with some healthy eating and more exercise she will be just fine. Encourage her to take steps to take care of her health if this is something that bothers her!


sv
what's overweight? If she feels good, she is not otherwise she is.


Gone
who cares! too many people are hung up on how others look? if she is at risk for heath problems she should speak to her parents and seek the help of a doctor


Antas17
Well, in relation to her height and age she is considered overweight. But I'm sure there are things that can be done about it.


#1 is due on Jan28th. Cant wait
Well it does sound like she is a bit over weight.

You should suggest that she visit her doctor and ask the question. The "weight tables" are published for men and women based upon height but the doctor can advise further.

150 is too much, at 5'0. She should be no more than 120.


Christina

She's technically overweight. She can change that though.


Bird Girl
i am 17...im 5'8 and i weigh 125. i do think she is overweight. she can loose this weight simply by cutting her meals in half...and cutting back on salty foods and sugary foods. im sure she is still beautiful but she also needs to be healthy.


Suzanne

yes


Carrie
I would say she is a little, but not that bad and all she needs to do is eat a little better and work out. :)


lilguysmum

I would say yes. She could probably lose some weight and be at a more healthy range. She'd probably feel better about herself too.


Stay True To Yourself
yes she is


Lost Poet

Yes, 150 sounds heavy for being only 5 feet tall, especially if she's only 13.


kawaiiarockalypse
It depends on what her body shape is a lot, and how much of it is muscle. If she's healthy and comfy with her body, no worries- that's more important than anything!


: )
Yes, but I think she probably knows this already.

I do however think it's very unrealistic to expect her to get down to some ridiculous weight like 90lb-100lb and I do think those weights are only suitable for small framed females that age and height. If she is larger framed, she should get down to 110lb-130lb. But Ideally she should check with her doctor to be sure.
