Go out and have fun. Ride a bike. Run around and play. Get a friend and a football and play catch! Be active. Walk in the woods! Play in the snow! Go sledding!!
At your age, you do not need to worry about your weight. Be active and have fun, and your weight will be fine.

A 10 year old (male) child
who is 99 pounds
and is 4 feet and 8 inches tall has
a body mass index of 22.2,
which is at the 95th percentile,
and would indicate that your child is at risk of becoming overweight.
......
that was from a BMI (body mass index) calculator. This tells you if your weight is high or low compared to your height and other 10 year old boys.
The BMI number of 22 just means you're at risk of becoming overweight, so if you feel a little heavy just cut down on junk food and be more active! But there's nothing to seriously worry about yet.

You are fine. you are not over weight. did someone say this to u?
if so ignore them. they don't know what they are talking about, they probably just want to cause trouble because they are probably jealous.

Look in the mirror. Do you see any body fat?
When you walk/run, do you feel yourself jiggling around?
