Am I obese, fat, chubby, chunky, normal, skinny, thin or underweight?!


Question: Am I obese, fat, chubby, chunky, normal, skinny, thin or underweight?
I am 14 years old,
4"10 ft & 79 pounds.

Answers:

It depends on if you are just REALLY skinny, or you are naturally small.. or petite i should say. That's how I was when I was your age. anyways... if you are not naturally petite, then i say underweight. but if you are naturally petite, then I say thin :P (don't get self conscious. and keep your self esteem. it will help you a lot)



I am going to begin by saying I think you already had a pretty good idea of what the answer to this question is.

Underweight = <18.5
Normal weight = 18.5–24.9
Overweight = 25–29.9
Obesity = BMI of 30 or greater

YOU are at 16.5, Do the math.

A 14 year old (female) child
who is 79 pounds
and is 4 feet and 10 inches tall has
a body mass index of 16.5,
which is at the 11th percentile,
and would indicate that you are at a healthy weight.

My best guess is underweight or borderline underweight, otherwise I'd say extremely thin, but there's a big difference between thin and underweight.
I'm around your age, I weigh normally around 100 to 110. I just compared.



Let's try this through process of elimination...

So....

You're not fat
Not chubby
Not chunky
Not normal
Not skinny
Not thin
and not under weight....

Hmm....

Wait...

That only leaves....


RETARDED! 8D

Definitely not obese or fat or chubby or chunky or overweight. You may be thin or underweight, As well as a little short.



Yeah, you could definitely be okay with gaining some weight! I'm 5"4 and I weigh 105 pounds and I'm a very athletic person! Talk to your doctor!



Underweight. The appropriate weight for guys that age is around 130ish, and around 115ish for girls
