We are finding out the National Weight and Height chart is off. The answer is by the National Weight Chart Yes by 25 Lbs. But how do you feel and if you think you need to loss weight. change activity level and cut the snacks and enjoy life. Your body is still changing I was 246 high school now at 50 I'm 201 and healther then ever. Do let it be a determining factor who you are.

What does your doctor or dietician say? Avoid sodas and junk food and processed food. Eat wholesome unprocessed food.

Yes, but not by much; 118-159 is the normal Body Mass Index (BMI) range for your height.

I am a big man, healthy but a little overweight and I enjoy others that are large like me. We need to be comfortable with who we are outside and inside. I think large women are very attractive.

Yes it is way too heavy for your age and height , as over the next couple of years you would normally put on 25% more weight which will push you way over 200lbs so unless you shoot up in height you will be way overweight

I agree with Zebzz. I'm 62, 6 feet, 182 pounds with a slim to average build. When i was your age I was the same height and about the same weight. At the srat of high school I weighed 172 and when I graduated 179. I've been as heavy as 212 and as light as 145 when I was sick...

It depends on your build if you have a big frame I'd say that is normal but for your height and age if you have a small frame I'd say you could be borderline over weight.
Only you know how you feel about your weight if you are happy with it then dont let it bother you.
