Answer 1

If you eat healthy and stay active that is great! I am about 5'8 and I look pretty good at that weight! Don't compare your weight to your shorter friends bc us tall girls weight more anyway. Remember to feel good about yourself and be healthy and you will be beautiful.

Answer 2

Lucky you -- you'll be a taller then average girl. Just concentrate on maintaining your 140 lbs because that's a good weight for your height. Not to slim and not chubby.

Get your protein, fruits, and veggies in and exercise at least 30 mins per day (even walking after school will help you to maintain).

Limit your sweets, junk food, and carbs (potatoe, rice, bread). And cut out or drink no more then 1 soda per day. Go for water or iced tea.

Answer 3

Your weight depends so much more on your height than it does on your age. You are a tall girl, so it's natural that you're going to weigh more than some of your shorter peers. One-forty is within the normal weight range for 5'8" so you're fine, especially since you're still growing. Just keep active and eat healthy and you'll be fine.

Answer 4

I am 5'9 and 120 pounds, and I am supposedly underweight, according to my BMI, so my guess is, your perfectly proportioned, which is where I need to be myself, but yeas, sweetie, your healthy.

Answer 5

Very decent weight. Not too heavy, but not too thin. You are defanitly on the thinner side though for 5'8

Answer 6

You're a tall one...nice!

Answer 7

pretty tall.
