I did the exact same thing, At age 13 I weighed about 125 and in about one month I lost closer to 15 lbs, right before I turned 14.  Totally normal.  Enjoy it and stay active.

When I was 12, I was 5'3" and I weighed 110lbs.  I remember being healthy, not to fat or thin.  It all depends on your body type.  Those extra few inches could afford you an extra 15-20 lbs.

I think that is about 7 lbs and that is unhealthy. Weight loss should be about 2 lbs a week. Try and do it sensibly or it will all come back with a vengance.\nEat a lot of veggies and fruit this week and walk walk and run if you can.

How tall are you?  If you are about 5' 5" or taller, you probably don't need to lose any weight.\n\nEdited to add--\nI just looked at your first question and see you are 5' 5 1/2".  So, you really don't need to lose any weight.

You are the "perfect" weight if you go by the medical standard that for every 5 ft you should be 100lbs.  Why do you feel you should be 5-10lbs lighter?  Just the number or do you want to be firmer, more fit?  You can up your exercise to become more lean, increasing your muscle mass.  I'm 5'1" and 114 (just weighed today at doc's) and I would like to be down 9-14lbs, but if I increase my muscle and lose some fat, even staying at the same weight, I'll look and feel better for myself.

Not hardly - for every inch over 5 feet you should have 3 to 5  pounds if you are physically and expect to be nutritionally fit.

I am only 5'7 and I am 230.(not fat),\nit depends on your build. (muscle vs. fat)\n\nmuscle weighs more that fat anyway.\n\nAs long as you feel good about your self and are healthy that is all that counts.\n\nwould help to know if you are a man or woman.\ncould give you a healthy range.

How tall are you? Assuming at 14 years and 9 months old (born in September 15, 2001), and that you're about 5'1", you would have a 22.7 BMI, (Body-mass index).  This is a healthy weight for that age and height. \n\nCheck this site out and insert your own specific numbers to be sure

If you weigh 74 pounds and people are complaining that you look too fat, you must be like 36 inches tall.  People who have a genetic pre-disposition to dwarfism can also have a problem where their body still tries to weigh as much as a taller person.  I'm astounded that in 23 years you've never researched your condition or consulted a doctor.\n\nOr did you mean 74 kilos?  That could be an okay weight if you are quite tall and muscular.  Once you're an adult your age has nothing to do with a healthy weight.  It's all based on your height.

Yes. You shouldn't hate yourself for being fat, short, tall or anything similar to these things. If you are not comfortable with the weight that you currently carry, then do something about it. Diet and exercise will help you lose the amount of weight that you would like. If you don't want to lose the weight, then just be satisfied with your decision. The only reasons that anyone should be concerned about their weight is the effect it has on them and others. Your health is important and not putting a burden on society if your weight becomes an issue. Hollywood is not correct. Looking like you just got out of a concentration camp is not sexy, healthy or appealing.

My goodness!! At 126 lbs., and wearing a size 5 jeans, you are anything BUT overweight. Of course you aren't overweight, unless you are only 4' 8"!! Then you'd probably have a problem!! Sweetheart, be happy you 126 lbs. I haven't seen that weight since birth!! LOL

You are technically a little bit overweight, but only by about 5lb. They say between 95lb and 128lb is a healthy weight for your height. But it also depends on your build and how much muscle you have. \n\nHave your body fat percentage checked. Considering you are around 40, it should be no more than 32%. Also if your waist is no more than 32 inches, that is pretty good too. HTH : )

It's all relative... I would say that you may be carrying around a few extra pounds, but aren't "fat." Someone who is 5'3" and weighs significantly more than you would think that you were thin. All that matters is that you exercise regularly, eat right and have a BMI of less than 24%.

The average weight for a girl thats 5'4 is 140, so your fine. Be happy with yourself.
