Is 5'5 150 lbs fat for a girl?

Answer 1

If you mean fat as in overweight then probably yes. I'm 6'1 and 195 lbs, and my ideal weight is 175 lbs, so therefore im over by jsut 20 lbs, which isn't too bad for most people. Search for a BMI scale, input height and weight, and sometimes age, and check what your BMI is, or body mass index.

Answer 2

If by fat you mean overweight, then yes. A girl who is 5' and 150 pounds has a BMI of 29.3, and is very close to obesity(30). Though this could be inaccurate if you have a lot of muscle tissue. In that case, you should check your body fat percentage.

Answer 3

Actually it's not! With these numbers, you have a BMI of 24.4

To have a healthy weight, your BMI should be between 20 and 25. Also note that the BMI is only correct when you are adult, when you are younger you cannot really rely on the BMI, because the body isn't fully grown yet, it's always possible that a teen will lose weight when he/she grows older (NOT by diets) if he/she is a bit havier than usual.

Answer 4

I deffinently do not think so! I am 16 and those are my measurements, and generally people say i am really thin, but I don;t believe it myself, but i have always had body issues. (I used 2 be 150, so i am very picky over my body). i am also a size 4, sometimes a 2 in some stores! If someone said they were a size 2 or 4, would you think they're fat?

Answer 5

To be considered obese for a 5'5 girl, you would have to weigh about 180 pounds or over.

Answer 6

Well it depends if you LOOK fat because you're not really considered fat if you dont look like it but im guessing this person might be a little chubby

Answer 7

No
