Question: Is this normal? I'm 5'4, 14, and 138 pounds. Am I an okay weight? Or am I overweight?
Answers:
According to the US Department of Health, your general BMI (Body Mass Index) is 23.7. This means your body fat measures at 23.7 percent. And, according to this website, you are in normal range.
There is a more accurate one (in which you enter your birthdate and sex) on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's website which you can do yourself by going here:

From a healthy standpoint, having a normal BMI is very important in reducing your risk for health problems like high blood pressure later in life. If it's your physical appearance you are concerned with, only you can be the judge if you think you need to make any changes.
