It all depends on how tall she is. My daughter is 8 going to be 9 in 3 months and she weighs 98lbs. But, but she is also 5'3(I ain't lying either, her father is 7'0) She too feels that she is over weight. I have to have talks with her everday. Kids in school tease her about how big she is(as you can imagine she towers over them), its hard for kids to be kids these day and ages. I truly feel bad for kids today. Tell her that shes beautiful and that it doesnt matter what anyone else says, as long as she and her family  thinks shes fine.

You are too young to panic on your weight

If you want to use an easy thing to guess. \n\nIf the person is 5 feet tall, they should weigh 100 pounds. \n\nFor each inch of height above 5 feet, they add 5 pounds. \n\nEg:  I am 5 foot 6 inches, so I should weigh 130 pounds. (approximately).  but don't make a big deal about it, if she stays active, she will burn the calories she intakes.  It is if she is not active, and eating poor choices, that you may need to suggest activities that will help keep her burning fuel. \n\nGood luck.  Self esteem begins at home.

The age of 12 years is an objective measure of adolescence, each child will mature both pyschologicall and physiologically at different rates. Physiologically, he will have an increase in bone density at sites that were previously dominated by cartilage. Aside from puperty related hormonal changes, increases in maximal oxygen consuption, increases in maximal lung volumes and if they have not already occured, natural changes in the ECG of the child's heart electrical activity. Encourage a healthy diet WITH LOTS OF VARIETY, and physical activity as sport or other hobby to maintain healthy body weight..no dieting from wrestling or other weight dependent sports. for more info check out this website.\nwww.acsm.org\nwww.medline.com

it depends on your height. if your a girl, start at 100 pounds for five feet tall, then add 5 pounds for every inch. so somebody who's 5'6 should be 130. for boys, do the same except start at 110 and add 6 pounds for every inch.

130 lbs +/- 10%.  This means, based upon your height, your ideal body weight range is 117-143 pounds with 130 pounds the average wt for your height.  If you have a small bone frame then you are considered at healthy weight at the lower end of the range, medium bone frame--mid-range, large bone frame--higher weight range.

140 - 184 lbs\nThis recommendation is based on a Body Mass Index (BMI) range of 19-25.

(The height is missing from your question).If you go to www.calorie-count.com you can find a body-mass index calculator.  You type in the weight & height, and it gives you a number based on the ratio, and tells you if it's normal, under- or overweight.\nFor an 11 yr old though, you probably shouldn't worry unless the child is obese, or borderline-obese.  Metabolism changes a lot after puberty.

For our height the weight would be anywhere between 115 and 135.  135 being the absolute max. It all depends on you bone structure. For me I have sort of a medium build so I have to stay between 125 and 130, or else I look VERY sick. If you are built is small stay within 115 and 125. Good luck.

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.
