i'm 5'0.5" and I weigh roughly 88 pounds. I'm 19, but I'm fine. I'm skinny because of my genetics. I would like to gain a couple of pounds though. You're just a bit underweight that's all. Since you're only 15, you're still growing so your weight/height is going to change. But you're fine as long as you're not starving yourself.

Hmm, it does sound as though your weight is a little low... check your BMI and your muscle to fat ratio, and speak to your doctor, since general measurements like BMI can be a bit unreliable. Some people are naturally super-skinny. Are you petite; that is, are you going to grow much more, or will you most likely stay where you are? In both cases it's possible that you'll gain more weight as you grow older. If you started to grow late and are in the height of adolescence, you probably shouldn't worry. Just see what your doctor says before you have any distressing thoughts.

I think thats ok..you're underweight but not in an unhealthy way. I'm 5' 5" and i weigh around 98 lbs...and i'm also 15. It just depends. Sometimes it sucks cause ppl might call you anorexic and stuff like that but just tell them to stfu because its ok to be healthy and skinny too. lol.

Well maybe you should consider putting on a couple of pounds. being 5'1 you should be around 120 lbs - 130 at the most. Wich is still pretty average. More so to be physically fit.

Yeah, that does seem too skinny & underweight for your age and height. Maybe you could try adding just a couple more pounds, but remember to have a healthy diet and do regular excercise.

Hi, you are still growing, so I feel you should not worry.
how about asking a doctor, your parents, teachers, good school friends whether you look skinny?
Do a BMI test on the internet. Google it and you should be able to find a website on BMI test.

hmmm...you may be a hair on the skinny side. I have a friend who is 17 and 5'2 and 95 lbs and she looks normal and eats normal (more than normal actually lol)
Just make sure you continue to eat healthy and pleeease don't get any skinnier! :p

no, you're just thin. When I was 11 years old, I was 5'2" and 90 pounds, now I'm 16, and I'm 5'10" and 123 lbs. Unless you're starving yourself, you're fine! it is just genetics with me!
