What Is the average weight for a 15 yr old?? in kgs plz?

Question

i weight 44 kg am i anorexic??

Answer 1

Whether you have anorexia depends on several things. Firstly, 44kg alone wouldn't make you anorexic.

Technically speaking, this is the criteria for anorexia nervosa:
a) Refusal to maintain body weight at or above a minimally normal weight for age and height (e.g. weight loss leading to maintenance of body weight less than 85% of that expected)
b) Intense fear of gaining weight or becoming fat, even though underweight
c) Disturbance in the way in which one's body weight or shape is experienced, undue influence of body weight or shape on self-evaluation, or denial of the seriousness of the current low body weight
d) In postmenarchal females, amenorrhea, i.e. the absence of at least three consecutive menstrual cycles (A woman is considered to have amenorrhea if her periods occur only following hormone e.g. birth control pills)

How do YOU feel about your body? What's your relationship with food and body like? If you are eating when hungry and stopping when full, that's a good sign. If you are restricting your caloric intake to maintain a lower weight, or you are compulsively overeating, that will certainly throw off your metabolism.

Here is a website that can give you more information on anorexia, as well as help you locate ED therapists, support groups, inpatient programs near you.

The average weight for a person is influenced by several factors, for example, height. The average weight of a 15 yr old girl who is 57" tall is 42 kgs, while that of a 15 yr old who is 66" tall is 57 kgs.

Answer 3

You need to grow up, seriously. Do you even know what's anorexic? Even a 72kg girl can be aneroxic. Actually, weight has nothing to do with it.

"Anorexia: An eating disorder characterized by markedly reduced appetite or total aversion to food. Anorexia is a serious psychological disorder. It is a condition that goes well beyond out-of-control dieting. The person with anorexia, most often a girl or young woman, initially begins dieting to lose weight. Over time, the weight loss becomes a sign of mastery and control. The drive to become thinner is thought to be secondary to concerns about control and fears relating to one's body. The individual continues the endless cycle of restrictive eating, often to a point close to starvation. This becomes an obsession and is similar to an addiction to a drug. Anorexia can be life-threatening."

Second of all, weight largely depends on height. Ever heard of BMI? So for a girl 5'1" tall 44kg is a proper weight and for someone 5'10" tall 55kg is less.

I hope something goes in your weight obsessed teenage brain.
