It's because 13 year olds should be much thinner than adults. A healthy adult who is 5'4" and 145lbs would be obese if they were 13 and the same height and weight. If most of your friends are the same size as you, that's normal because there is an obesity crisis and a lot of parents think their overweight child is healthy.
