Hey, my name is Elena (pronounced EE-lay-nuh) and I run the advice column at my high-school newspaper. I've been told I give great advice that works. So go ahead and ask me ANYTHING from light-hearted questions to serious problems. If you need to know how to fix your broken iPod or fix a broken heart, I'll answer. Remember, I only know what you tell me so my advice may not work in your specific situation. Ask away! :)

hey i saw you answered one girls question of if she was overweight. I know im overweight because im 5' 4" and 140lbs. but i have lost 15lbs. so i use to be huge lol ok so my thing is what is a BMI? what is my BMI? and how do you know about that?

Well good job keeping up with the weight loss! BMI stands for body mass index. It compares your height to your weight and finds the healthy weight for your height. Without your age I cannot calculate yours, but you can go to kidshealth.com and click on TEENS. Then go to Health and Fitness and click on
"What is the right weight for my height?" scroll down and fill in the info and then look at the graph. Ask if you need more help.
