My daughter is 11 yrs. old. She is 5' 2" and weighs 100 pounds. Is she over weight, under weight, or just right?

Actually she sounds like she might be either very altheletic or a little underweight, going by a pure BMI calculation (18.2-ish) but for growing children around that age, it's so hard to tell. Two days from now she'll be 5'3" and 135lbs...lol
Either way, she's definately not over weight by any means...

I am 31 and 5'2 and weigh 103 pounds and I am considered lean according to my BMI so I would say your daughter is at a healthy weight.

She's fine. If her pediatritian hasn't said anything (and I doubt he/she would at that weight), then don't worry about it.
Just continue to teach her proper nutrition and encourage her to play sports. She's normal, so the best thing you can do is reinforce healthy lifestyle habits.

That's about 45 kilos?? Geez, she's only a little girl, why are you worried about her at such a young age?? 45 kilos is just right, normal.........Ohhhh, don't worry bout her babe, she's not overweight, plug Body Mass Index into your search engine and find out how to work out her BMI. I actually think she's probably a bit underweight.

Sounds like a healthy weight. Isn't that skinny, too?

She's in the middle of healthy weight.

A little on the thin side, but perfectly normal for her age.
