Being heavy doesn't mean you are fat. Talk to your pediatrician/doctor about your weight. They will check your height and weight and BMI (body mass index) and let you know where you are. Being healthy is what is important.

well, i had always worried about my weight. Im 12, 5"3 , and 120 lbs. And I am very muscular. Never let your self image drag you down. Whenever you have doubts about your self image just remember that it only matters whats inside that counts, i know that sounds corny but its true. And if you really want to loose weight, eat healthy. Though it seems like you dont think your fat, but your worried about what other people think of you. Just realize your a beautifulgirl!!! :)

you are only 12 yrs old don't worry aboout weight right now people are so health counios it is not even funny if you worrie about it too much it might lead to an eating diorder and you don't want that. learn to love yourself a few pounds will not hurt and try walking eating healther and running but talk to a docter first and see what he says rember beautiy is in the eye of the beholder

you are a little overweight. I checked ur bmi (body mass index ) on seventeen.com, and ur bmi is 24.797. The normal bmi range for a twelve year old is 14.8-21.7, so u are a little overweight, but only by like 3 bmi points. That is just a website though. you should
ask ur doc if ur weight is ok. bmi tests can vary because not everybody has the same bone structure, body build, and how muscular u r.

Oh sweetie you are not fat! Just because you are not a size 2 does not mean fat....and being skinny is not always the best look!!!!
Just stay active in sports, or walking....If you are like me it is in your genes to be a heavier woman, thicker hips and bottom.
As time goes, with proper exercising you will not get over weight!!!
Be Proud to be F.A.T. Fabulous and Thick!!!

Stop worrying so much about the way that you look. Only "your" can make you feel fat. And only you can make a difference of the way that you'll look when you get older. You're still young, you have plenty of time for your body to change.

Eat less candy & junk food, and get more exercise. I don't think you're too fat at 5'3 and 140lb, maybe try to loose 5 lbs, and don't worry about your butt - guys like big butts!

For your height, that weight wouldn't be excessive. Maybe get on an exercise program to firm up your body and tighten your muscles. What matters the most is how YOU feel about you. As long as you are comfortable with your appearance, what others think doesn't matter.
