Have I lost enough weight?

I’m 16 years old, 5’8”, and 141 lbs. I used to weigh 156, before I started dieting. Have I lost enough? How low should I go? I bought a pair of pants size 8 the other day, which is smaller than I used to wear. I don’t want to be size 8, but I’m really tall. Is it ok to be size 8 in highschool?

Answer #1

size 8 is a nice size to be. thin, but not too thin. as someone said above you are in normal weight range. it’s up to you what weight you feel happiest at. just be warned this could turn into something you can’t control. trust me I know about weight issues.

Answer #2

I just calculated your body mass index. it says you are the normal weight. Your bmi is a 21.4 and normal is 18.5 to 24.9

Answer #3

Er, what’s wrong with being a size 8 in highschool? Does it matter what point of life you’re in if you’re a size 8? Maybe you’re caring a little bit too much about what people think about you and the size of your pants. You are perfectly fine being a size 8…and in highschool.
