Healthy Weight Ranges for 13-Year-Olds: CDC Guidelines

There is a range of healthy weights for 13-year-olds, depending on their height, sex, and body composition. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the average weight for a 13-year-old boy is between 75 and 145 pounds, and the average weight for a 13-year-old girl is between 76 and 148 pounds. However, these are just averages, and some 13-year-olds may be healthy at weights outside of this range.

It is important to talk to your child's doctor about what is a healthy weight for them. The doctor can assess your child's growth and development and make recommendations about diet and exercise.
