Answer 2

Hi.
When I was 14, I was 5' 9" and between 165-170 pounds. I was overweight, but didn't think so (my mom brainwashed me that I was beautiful.....even though I was average and overweight a little bit). Now I am 34 & still 5' 9", but I am 145 pounds (with lots of muscle....I teach dance). You are a little bit overweight, but that should be considered normal for a young teen (not "normal" like many of the teens who fast so that they can become super skinny model-types, but normal/healthy). Start exercising now (don't go crazy, walk to school, join a gym or cross country/track or swim are good starter sports. If you eat right and exercise, you can keep your heart healthy and feel good about yourself. Drink lots of water and be happy with yourself.

Answer 3

That is around average weight, yes. Don't believe those stupid signs in the shopping malls that say you should be about 90 pounds! Those are for little skinny people that think being that skinny is good for you. It's good to be skinny, but not like a pole. Being too skinny for your age is just as bad as being too overweight for your age. That's just a tip. ;-)

Answer 4

Sounds healthy to me!
At 5' 6", I'd say you look great weighing 155.
