What is the normal weight range for girls age 17?

Answer 1

It depends on your height. Weight can range widely since its normal for teenagers to be on the low end of skinny.
Just use the BMI Body Mass Index calculator to determine your "normal" weight range, and allow for slightly underweight as normal too.

Answer 2

Age isn't what decides if a persons body weight is normal or not. Height, muscle mass and bone size come into play on where someones weight should be. You can have 2 girls that are 17 and the same height, one weights more than the other but the one that weight less may have more fat than the heaver one becasue muscle weight mroe than fat. The size of your wrist can show the size of your bone density. BMI can assist in giving a weight range to ones height but it isn't 100% correct due to other aspects that come into play, if someone is big boned and has a large amount of muscle they will be on the upper end of their BMI or higher and still be considered a normal weight while someone can be within that range but a smaller bone density and less muscle mass and the doctor may tell them to loose some weight becasue they have to much fat compared to their bodie's size. I can also tell you that one 17 year old girl may weigh 110 pounds while another may weigh 170 and they can both be considered normal weight becasue all the other aspects come into play and age has nothing to do with it. Once you are full grown your normal body weight will always be the same, it has nothing to do with age it is based on how your body is built. I personally have run into women at the same weight and height as me and they look quite obese while I am not considered overweight. My BMI says I can afford to loose a few pounds and I would liek to do that but due to the way my body is built, I am at a healthy weight where I am. If you are concerned about your weight range, check your BMI or an even better way to check would be your body fat percentage, speaking to a doctor can also help you to find the proper weight range for you.

Answer 3

I would say about 130-160. But it depends on their height.

Answer 4

I agree depends on height and body frame size. Your doctors office will have charts. Health wise its better to be on the thinner side but not to thin. It's just as unhealthy to be to thin as it is to be obese.
