What do you mean by "percentage"?

As for BMI, you can find the charts for "children." However, BMI is a very inaccurate "summary" of your health. You can have a low BMI but be unhealthy if you do not engage in regular physical activity or healthy eating behaviors.

There are percentile charts, which can display the average height for age, weight for age or even BMI for age of teens. Like a survey is done and they show the information in a chart, 50% is the complete middle average.

have a look at this site http://www.bcm.edu/cnrc/bodycomp/bmiz2.html

it shows you a chart based on a child's BMI, to see where they fit in, in comparison to other kids of the same age.

or there are these graphs http://embryology.med.unsw.edu.au/pdf/all.pdf  which display the same ( age 2 - 20 is further down)

Like i mean you would expect a small framed kid with a fast metabolism to be on the lower end of healthy, with a smaller BMI. what would you expect of a kid with a bigger frame, what sort of percentage should they be at??

edit: sort of like asking what percentage of people have a large build?

This is a chart for adults so it may not completely apply but it should give you an idea of how healthy weight will vary by frame size.

thats the thing, once im set on something like that, and theres a chance its wrong (because im a teen and still growing - and very disproportioned after a fast ED recovery) ill be convinced that i might be a small frame when i may not actually be, and ill probably act on it...

edit:looking at my parents are obese its hard to tell, but id say they are robust too, in which case id be also. im 5 foot5 i think (166cm) and im about 128pound so i fall into medium for 5 foot 5, which makes me feel slighty more comfortable, thank you :)

*bump* does anyone understand what im talking about?
