Obese?: Based on the information provided, her bmi is 27.4 which is above the 95th centile for her age and sex i.E she is considered obese. But bmi does not take in to account the lean body mass. If she is a muscular 9 year old, she could be ok. If not, she should be seen by your pediatrician and nutritionist. May need to go on diet and exercise program.
