So, I spent some time looking for the right place to post this, and hopefully here works. For a while now I have felt that I am overweight or just have a little extra in my mid-section. Especially because most of my friends are far skinnier than me. I've been made fun of for my body (directly and indirectly about weight:() and I was wondering if I was normalish weight for my height/age. :confused:
I am 14 years old 5'11" (180.34cm) and I weigh 133.5 lbs (60.5 kg).
If you could tell me your thoughts and height/weight it'd be greatly appreciated, thanks.

Doesn't even sound close to overweight, hun, this is pretty close to my height/weight.
I'm 6'0 and roughly 128-132lb.

Forget the feeling of 'overweight'. If you want to exercise, you should do it. I suggest you find a sport, or go running. There are plenty of ways to get fit.
If you don't want to exercise, then don't. If you're happy with your body there's no reason to change. (However, wanting to lose weight to fit in is a completely valid reason.)
Has anyone ever mentioned your weight to you? If not, don't worry about it.
I'm technically overweight because I work out to play rugby.

All of the people I know that are 5'11 130-ish are skinny as fuck. There is no way you are overweight if that's true.
I'm 5'11 205 and I'm not overweight.

i think the best way is to just do hard exercise and running and take care of your diet as well

you are not overweight!! dont worry. also, sometimes people's weight can be deceiving - for example im 16 5'5 and weigh 150 but i really dont look like it - because muscle weighs a lot more than fat. dont compare yourself to your friends because everyone has different metabolisms, body types, etc. so just try to feel comfy in your own body :-)

I understand where you're coming from, I'm 5'10" & 145lbs. Try to be comfortable in your body, start working out, eating healthier. You're not overweight, you just carry your weight differently. I carry mine in my mid-section. Just lightly exercising & eating good will make you feel better about yourself. Don't worry about what others think either, I highly doubt they say much about your body, & if they do then fuck them. I used to have really bad body issues & I've learned that regardless of how my body looks, people still love me for who I am.

ARE U MAD...You're skinny i'd say
I too grew rapidly and gained during puberty,,surely I got filled out.....When I was 13/14 I was stick skinny. I had a small girlish face, puny body, limbs were virtual sticks and I was bullied too..by 16 puberty hit & within lyk 1.5 yrs my waist gone from 25 in to 36, face has plumped up and not girlish anymore, thighs are chunky and now the rub together!!!, I got a nice bubble butt too....and I have gone from 48 kg to 65 kg at 5 foot 11.........downside is I have a hint of a tummy roll, cannot run etc like when I was skinny, and have sm man-boobies....But I really enjoy my plumpy body to my skinny body I used to have........so says my GF also.
Besides I have now got proper body proportions so all clothes from briefs to tee shirts hang on me better.
Still I look slender and underweight compared to all other guys. If I take my clothes off only one can see my untoned body. There is no way you look fat.

No way are you over weight. If you are showing a gut then maybe you need to work on some abb development in the gym. I am 6 3 and carry 210 pounds and look pretty good to the ladies when wearing a speedo. lol, don't let your "friends" get to you!

You're within the range of normal weight for you, though being technical with charts you're even a bit underweight.
