Answers:
Try this BMI (Body Mass Index) Formula and know her classification:
5'3'' = 1.60 meters
98 lbs. = 45. 45 kg
BMI Formula:
weight (in m) / height^2 (in kg)
Sol'n:
45.45 kg / 2.56 m = BMI = 17.75
.: she is underweight and needs to go up around 18 before she'll be considered as normal. Good luck to her!
Status:
Below 18.5 :Underweight
18.5 - 24.9: Normal
25.0 - 29.9: Overweight
30.0 and Above: Obese
A BMI of less than 19 indicates you are underweight. A BMI between 20 and 24 is usually considered normal. A person with a BMI of 25 to 29 is considered overweight, and a person with a BMI of 30 or above is considered obese. Obesity is associated with an increased risk for heart disease, diabetes, and other life-threatening diseases.
Shes actually underweight.
The average weight for a 14 year old, 5'4" is 125.
She says shes fat because she wants you to reassure
her that shes not.
She wants people to say "you're not fat!"
What I do is just say, "Yeah, you are pretty fat!"
Haha, its funny and she'll get upset and stop saying that.
She is underweight. At 5'3 she need to be at least a little over 100 lbs.
irt seems to me that the proportion is okay.
sounds about right. surely nothing to be overly concerned about
in my opinion she is underweight. and ( no offense) but i think she may just want some compliments or reasusrance. i'd ignore her when she talks like that.
