Is it overweight for a 13 year old to weigh 95 pounds and be 5'5?
There is something in medicine called BMIWikipedia: The body mass index (BMI) or Quetelet indexis a value derived from the mass (weight) and height of an individual.

What weight is obese for a 13 year old?
It doesn’t matter. Weight doesn’t measure things like muscle mass and skeletal frame, dehydration or proper hydration, etc.If you ARE a 13-year-old kid asking the question, please don’t even worry about that number on the scale. It means nothing.What matters is how well you feel inside. Do you have enough energy to do the things you need and want to do throughout the day? If not, your muscles need more practice. Practice more movement every day until you feel that you have enough energy to deal with all of the other stuff—and I have a 14 year old daughter, so I KNOW how much stuff you have to deal with on a daily basis.As far as eating, do the following for the rest of your life:If it looks and tastes good and if it feels good an hour or so after you eat it, eat it. If it looks and tastes bad and if it feels bad an hour or so after you eat it, don’t eat it.And when making choices for food, try to find all of the colors of the rainbow and put them on your plate. That assures that you’ll get all the vitamins and minerals you need to keep your beautiful self moving, learning and growing.Now, if you’re NOT a 13-year-old child asking? Why the hell would you ask a question that doesn’t pertain to you? Why the hell are you concerned about what other people are doing or how much they weigh? Mind your damn business.Hope this helps. :)
Is 105 lbs fat for a 5’3 13-year-old girl?
No.Not just no, but hell no.It's actually close to the "underweight" range for the Body Mass Index (you may have heard of it being referred to as BMI).Hon, you are just fine the way you are. Don't worry about your weight, please. It's so easy to see all these pictures of skinny, svelte women out there, in magazines, on Instagram, on SnapChat, on YouTube, then to look at yourself in a mirror and see only, "I'm ugly" or "I'm fat" or "I don't look like them, so I'm no good." Those women use makeup tricks. Those women use Photoshop. Those women know the ins and outs of flattering poses and lighting. Those women work to look like that.You're 13. Your body still has a lot of changing and growing to do; it'll be different every year until you hit your early 20s. Right now, it feels awkward and weird, and, I hate to say it, it will keep feeling that way for a few years. But rest assured, you are at a perfectly good weight.If anyone tells you you're fat, just tell them your crazy Internet auntie says they're wrong. ;-)
