How much weight should I lose?


Question:
I'm thirteen years old, 5'3, and weigh 159 pounds. I know I'm a bit chubby... How much weight should I lose?

Answers:
Are you a guy or a girl? that makes a difference..
here i'll calculate your BMI for you... you're at 28.2 and that's overweight.
To get to a healthy BMI of 24.8 you should get down to 140..
don't stress though, cus BMI doesn't tell you everything, it's just an estimate...
also, you're still growing and all that; so no extreme diets. try watching Shaq's Big Challenge ( which ended) it totally motivated me. Man, if those kids can do it, so can you! And also check with a doctor, cus the doctor will give you the most accurate and personal advice.
about 20-30 pounds would be good for you. dont worry...i'm on the same thing as you. i'm 13 and i wanna lose 30 pounds..but right now im going for 20. i'm 5'8 and 170...yeaaah.
HEY!! I'm 13 but i'm also 5'6 and weigh 140. If all that weight is from just eating and plaing video games ( LIKE ME! ) Then u should lose weight. If you work out and run and stuff like that then your proly fine!
You should weight almost 125 pounds.
