Answer 1

i think 20 and actually i heard that when you turn twelve it is the best age to know if a child is going to be overweight or what. i was also in the same situation before and still am. when i was twelve i weighed 35 - 40 kilos and now i am 19 and the last time i weighed myself was in April this year and by then i weighed 99 kilos, now i might be over 100 because my weight seems to increase no matter what i try but just take your sister to a dietician and mabye he/she will come to your sister's rescue rather than waiting too long because waiting will mean next time she will be telling you that she doesnt want to go to school because other children are laughing at ger. bealive me, i have experienced that and still am, people can just be nasty at you when you are overweight, you always be treated like an outsider. GOOD LUCK

Answer 2

I dont know kilos or cm. When I was 12, I was 5ft. 7inches tall, and weighed about 115 pounds. Go online and type in weight or go to a diet website online. It can give you guidelines to go by. It is a shame today, how kids are obsessed with their weight, especially young girls. I have a granddaughter, who is only 7, and she thinks she is fat. Other kids are usually behind it, as they call them names, and make fun. You can help your sister, by building up her self esteem. Tell her she is smart, and pretty, and that you are proud of her. I think intelligence is more important than looks.
