    Unless you have a wrestling weight class, do not worry about it

    You are very short, so expect to weigh less. Why not compare with otger kids in gym class or ask.

    You have a BMI of 26.64 which means you are slightly overweight... But that depends on your body structure. The normal weight BMI for you is 24.9. There are your numbers according to the BMI chart. Your ideal weight is around 105-110 pounds, again depending on your build/body structure

    I’m 5’4”, and I was told by my doctor anything over 145 would be considered overweight and anything below 125 would be underweight. 130-135 is my ideal weight according to my doctor. That was back when I was around 17 when I was told that, so I guess around your age. Body type, gender, and muscle mass all play an important factor in what is considered “overweight,” so it would be best to ask your doctor what a healthy weight is for you. 15, 5’1”, and 141 lbs could be overweight for one person but ideal or maybe even underweight for another person. It really depends on so many things.
