I had him he was 6 lbs 14 oz. I'm not sure if it has anything with your weight versus the baby's weight.
Avatar n tn At 13, most teenagers are well into puberty and may be in the middle of or about to embark on growth spurts. Their height and weight may go through many changes in their teen years. According to the Centers for Disease Control, the average height for a 13-year-old girl is 5'1 3/4". Girls' normal height can range from 4'11 1/4" at the 10th percentile to 5' 5 3/4" at the 90th percentile.
1938479 tn?1325705620 If Arnold Schwarzenegger was to use a BMI (weight vs height) chart while bodybuilding, it would have classified him as obese. Another way to look at fat versus muscles is that a cubic inch of muscle will weigh more than a cubic inch of fat. Muscle is about 18 percent more dense than fat. So a better question is am I in shape or do i need to convert more areas of fat to muscle? With that said, here is a weight chart that should only be used to give you an idea, so don't take it as gospel.
Avatar m tn Depends. What is your height/weight/age? I assume you are male? I have a lot of info. I can share. Either send me a private msg with your answers or post your answers here and send me a private msg letting me know you have done so (sending a private msg will cause a reminder to pop up in my email box so I remember to check back here to see what you wrote).

Avatar f tn For weight gain you should try taking adequate amounts of calories as suggest for the height, weight and type of physical work with slight increased amount of carbohydrates, adequate amount of protein, slight amount of fat and plenty of fruits and vegetables. If aiming at increasing muscle mass the protein content of the diet should be on the higher side. Eating junk high calorie food can help you gain faster but is not considered a healthy.
Avatar m tn Your height is pretty normal. Not everyone gets to be 6 foot 2". It sounds like it is genetic. I wouldn't worry about it. Are most other people taller there? A lot of men and women in the U.S. and in California where I live are a wide variety of heights. a lot of men are much shorter. Especially, Hispanic races. I think you just are down on yourself. Be proud of who you are. It is who you are inside that is important.
Avatar n tn I agree with Brice, However, there are a lot of online diet calculators that can tell you (after you've typed in your gender, age, height, weight, activity level, and goal weight) what your caloric deficit should be each day in order to drop a certain amount of weight. 10 lbs in a month (if there are 4 weeks) amounts to roughly 2.5 lbs a week. Generally speaking it is more healthy to lose closer to 1-1.5lbs a week.
Avatar n tn was also told I won't have another ultrasound ...

Avatar f tn Has your fundal height been off at all? And it also depends on the U/S tech, some don't do the most accurate measurements, either, which can throw it off, and if your doctor isn't concerned I wouldn't be either. Babies gain about 1/2lb or more a week, so if your little one gains that and is 4lbs, he/she will be about 6lbs at birth, which is a very normal average weight, so don't stress!
Avatar m tn Meant to say "waist", not weight :) So, if your height is 70 inches, than your waist (no sucking it in :) ) should be no more than 35 inches. BTW I doubt you lost 4lbs of fat today, probably most of it is water weight. Best to lose weight gradually anyway -- like 1-2 lbs per week. Not sure what your nurse means by "make no diff".
Avatar n tn long. The doctor said she is 25% for weight and 90% for height/length... I think I might have a scientist that could have been a model on my hands... tall and skinny...
Avatar n tn Normal. Height is relative to your weeks, but the biggest thing is that the growth is in the right direction. They really don't worry unless the growth is way off or it stalls. As for the weight, lucky. That doesn't mean baby isn't gaining. It just means that you lost about the same as the baby gained. It happens. Baby has your stomach crowded. You can't eat as much and your appetite drops off. That's all.
Avatar f tn at 8 weeks i was 100 pounds..that was my normal weight..
Avatar f tn So I was looking over my paperwork and noticed that on 10/20 I measured 28 but on 10/27 I measured 32. I googled it and learned that these numbers are supposed to correlate with how many weeks you are. I'm 28 weeks tomorrow. My doctor didn't mention it at all but after I read up on it I'm wondering if it is too big a difference in one week? Also wondering why my doctor didn't say anything? I do have GD but have been losing weight. I have lost 2 pounds between the 20th and 27th.
2095187 tn?1333091434 Your weight is actually low for your age and if you want to grow taller, please do not go on a diet to lose weight. The average weight for your age and height is 115 pounds. If you think you look fat, then I would exercise as it is a way to tone muscles instead of dieting to lose weight. I don't think you are fat. The pictures in magazine are air brushed digitally on the computer to make girls look thinner than they are in real life. http://www.chartsgraphsdiagrams.
Avatar f tn My now 6 year old daughter has always had a weight problem. When she was 2 months old she had already doubled her birth weight and hasn't stopped. Her dr did blood work before and only was told she's OK. She did have a major food obsession but had had that under control for a year now. She plays soccer and is active but tires very easy. Well she has ot and her therapist noticed how thick my daughter's skin is and asked about thyroid issues.
Avatar f tn I'm a 16 year old girl and I'm pretty tall for my age and for a girl-- 6 feet tall. I've always told myself that my height is what makes my weight so high, but recently, I've come to terms with knowing that my health isn't a problem right now, but if I don't get healthier it will be one. I need tips on how to lose some weight. I'm open to activities to lose weight, but few I can do, because of my joints. So, if anyone has any ideas, please give me some.
