on average if you are 5 feet you should be approx 100 pounds. you should be about 5 pounds for every additional inch.
you should be around 125, doctors suggest about 5% more to remain healthy (about 131) if you were to be 20-29% you are considered overweight (150-161), when you reach 30% (162-or more) more than what is suggested you are considered obese.
you are under weight by about 22%, i think under certain diagnostic evaluation you may be considered anorexic

Yes you are. Consult your doctor.
May be you have an aneroxia nervosa problem. You may not recognize it. Your professional will.
13 year olds should not have to worry so much about weight - you have plenty of growing years left. Things will settle after some 5 or 6 years from now.

I would say 105-120....that would make you a bit underweight....but your doctor would know best....gain some weight
