I'm a 16 year old girl and i'm 5'7 and weigh 153 pounds. is this overweight?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not necessarily: This weight for height puts you in the upper 25% for height which is considered the upper end of normal.At 160 or above at your height you would enter the overweight category or the top 15% weight for height at 16.
