How much should a 12 year old weigh?

Question:

my little sister thinks she is overweight, but I don't. she weighs 100 pounds.

Answers:
no she's not overweight. tell her that's her correct weight, so don't stress about it in-less she wants to be anorexic. my little sister has the same weight, and she's 12.

About 1 year less than a 13 year old should weigh. Hope this helps :)

it is hard to say since you don't say how tall she is

my brother, he's 12, weighs 80 lbs. I don't know if that's the same for girls.

the average weight of a twelve year old, that is if they weigh 5'2 is 84 pounds. a little less, if shorter, and a little more if taller. That is just average though. Doesnt mean shes fat, she could have a lot of muscle.. is she into sports and stuff.

A 12 year old's average weight is about 110 pounds thats only because my sister is 12 and she is 110 lbs.

average weight should be 45-65 Kg,depending on her height and size.

Difficult to say since you didn't list a height. According to the CDC, the average height for a 12 year old girl is about 150cm (4'11'') and the average weight is about 40kg (90lbs). However, the range allows for about 20cms (about 8 inches) for height and 15kg (about 33lbs) in weight.

There are charts for these things, but they are very hard to read if you have no medical knowledge. I found them by googling, but couldn't read them at all.

LoL! you forgot say how tall she is.

that is a pretty normal weight. maybe she could get down to ninety-five, but preteens should not be fretting about their weight. it is natural at that age to start carrying a little extra fat.

How tall is she? I weighed 80 pounds when I was 12

It all depends on her height. A 12 year old who is 4' 2" has an ideal weight of 60 lbs, while one who is 5' 4" has an ideal weight of 114 lbs. Your sister should be about 5' 1" .
