The healthy weight range for you (according to BMI) is from 119-159 pounds.

You have a BMI of 24.0

These are the BMI categories:

---Underweight (18.5 and below)

---Healthy weight (18.5 – 24.9)

---Over weight (25 – 29.9)

---Obese (30 and above)

Answer 2

You are overweight, but don`t worry. In your age it`s ok. When I was 12-15 I was kind of overweight, but it stabilized. It`s not the reason to worry, just try to reduce eating chocolate, fries, bread. I`m not telling to stop eating that, just to take control. And... wait till you are 16. It will get better.

In between. You're pretty tall, but i dont know if that still balances out the weight. You'll just have to see in the next three years: those are the years where you'll really find out;)
