He is very sedentary, lazy, eats pizzas a lot. I saw he can do maximal 12 push ups without any stops.

By American standards he's normal. By anyone else's standards, he's obese.

Hmm, well I am 5'11" 204 and my waist is 32 inches, so I would have to say yes. The push ups are on the low side as well. If you have that question floating around then there is an issue....right? Make him do some sport or martial art. Good luck

for his age....maybe...but for his height then no....i'm 18 and i'm 5 8 188 lbs and waist 33 and i'm not overweight
granted i can do about 30 pushups straight.......but i used to be 5 7 and 200 lbs and waist 38......so i'd say if he ran...played sports.....didn't eat as much......he'd be fine.....also now is a good age to start lifting weights
but i don't think he's overweight....he might be heavy for his age but not for his height..just make sure it doesn't get worse

no hes probably not overweight per say. however you should probably have him work out some how. Take walks or play ball or something. Just to keep him healthy

According to his body mass index he is in the normal range. Just show him a picture of his dad to motivate him to exercise more.

Not overweight, just out of shape.

definitely only out of shape, but take away his game systems, limit his tv, etc. and eventually he'll shape up
