Answer Question

Answer 1

I am 5'5" and 146lbs. But I still feel fat. According to our height and a skeleton size chart I should be 120-135lbs. So I want to lose weight. Do what makes you happy, life is too short to worry about what is wrong with your body all the time. As a society we've fallen too far. Work at being happy, and healthy is nice too. But it's unhealthy to worry about being healthy all the time. Especially if you are willing to do dangerous things to be "perfect". Lol sorry rambled. You should be fine, make yourself happy.

Answer 2

I don't think you're really over weight, I think you are like 5 pounds over but you're fine. If you are really that concerned about it then just eat healthier and exercise more, like running etc.

Answer 3

It really depends on several key things you didn't include, but if you want to check your BMI (body mass index) here's a few BMI calculatorwww.nhlbisupport.com that is for general use, aka adult, and it says you are a healthy weight, but there is a juvenile BMI calculator atwww.shapeup.org this one is a little bit trickier, and more accurate so you may need an adult to help.Or you could talk to your pediatrician or doctor. Even the school nurse should know. Or your mom and dad,I mean worrying about this stuff at 14 is a little heavy and someone who knows you and is older and more knowledgeable could probably really help you!Good Luck! And Have a nice day!
