If you wish to determine if you are overweight the following information may help:

The following is the typical information that is used to determine if a child is underweight, normal weight, overweight, or obese; you must start with a children's weight chart, in which you simply plan/plot your height, BMI (Body Mass Index) and weight to determine where you fall with others children of your age group.

Now to determine if you are underweight, the BMI should be below the 5th percentile; if you are of normal weight, the BMI should be at the 5th percentile but less than the 85th percentile; if your are overweight, the BMI should be the 85th percentile but below the 95th percentile; and finally, if you are of obese weight, the BMI is at or above the 95th percentile.
