Is a waist size of 47 inches at my belly button bad? i'm 18.

Quite bad: A waist size of 47 inches is quite bad for one's health, no matter who he or she is, and regardless of age (unless she is pregnant at full term and about to deliver a baby). Correcting the underlying disorder should begin right away, in collaboration with one's primary care doctor.
