I have a daughter and she is 12 years old. She is a bit overweight.But does not look it.
She's 5'3, 12, and weighs 139 lbs. My question to you all is do you think that she is overweight, and if so, what can she do, that is fun, to lose weight?
Thanks!
(P.S.-It won't hurt my feelings if you say she is, I just want the honest to God truth(: Thanks again!)

No, she isn't overweight.

Her BMI [Body Mass Index] is 24.6, which is in the "Normal" range.

If she just plays outside a lot, and maybe does a sport, she might get in shape.

But she isn't overweight.
