How much do your 8 year old weigh?

DS is soon to be 8 (next few days). He weighs 4 stone 9. According to the NHS BMI calculator with his height it puts him just within the overweight catergory.

I admit his diet isn’t the best, he has asd and extremely fussy with food but he is quite active.

He doesn’t look overweight. Certainly not skinny but not fat either. He has a little belly (nothing extreme tbh) but his legs and arms and quite slim. He is in the correct size clothes for his age, sometimes smaller.

Should I be concerned. How much do your 8 year olds weigh?
