overlook about a number of those dumb solutions. Dont eat extra junk, thats purely going to make you undesirable. I dont comprehend what you're fearful about you're contained in the right weight determination on your age. because you're very lively you may favor to get some protein shakes, like the certain ok. as long as you're eating frequently theres no longer a lot else to do. In many years you'll have a boom spurt and get out of that stick verify degree. then you will be grateful that you stay skinny so genuinely.

Now a days "too skinny" or "too fat" can actually be defined by calculating something called Body Mass Index (BMI). This compares your weight according to your height. It was developed for adults but with a few modifications can also work for teens.
Based on the height and weight and age, your BMI is 19.7, placing your BMI-for-age at the 63rd percentile for girls aged 13 years. This is a healthy weight.
If you're really interested please look at the following website:

The question is are you happy with yourself and do you think you are too skinny? If you are the kind that throws up to be that thin you are too skinny but if you just eat like a normal teenager and are active then you are fine. It is just the way your body is.

No, you're perfectly healthy. I'm the same height and a few pounds heavier. Don't worry about it, you're balanced very well at this point. Don't eat too much or too little though, because you have nothing to worry about right now weight-wise (and you don't want to change that).

I'm 12 and I'm 5'2" 120 lb. (I'm not overweight, but should be on the lookout) So, not for being 2 inches taller than me, 5 lb less than me, and 1 year older than me, you're like exactly right.

No, you are not too skinny. People will try to say that because most folks in our society are too fat and obese. I think that is plenty for you to weigh. I wouldn't even call you skinny. You are only skinny compared to people who are overweight (which is the predominant norm in our culture).
