It really depends mostly on her height. The information on KidsHealth.org includes great information on normal height/weight ratios. Use the calculator on the page to calculate her healthy weight range. The calculator also provides a graph to illustrate the range she should be in:

I am tired of these questions, but I will answer it anyway. Not because I want the points, but because I think that girls have a problem with the body image of being overweight. I have a 12 year old girl and she is about that weight and is 4'11" and wears a size 0-2. Now, if your sister was 12 and weighed 140 lbs., depending on her height, then I would be concerned, but the weight that you say she is and her age, she could be setting up for an eating disorder. I would watch her if I were you.

There is a certain height-weight ratio range that is considered healthy. I know doctors have a chart. If you are concerned enough, call up a doctor & ask what a healthy range is depending on her height.

It depends on her height and exact age. Take a look at this site, enter all the variables and it will tell you the rest. If she's taller than 4'6" she's OK, if not, then she has a weight issue.

If she's not 5"2 or under with a small frame, like me, then no she's fine. Just make sure she keeps (or at least starts) exercising and eating well- it's important to start these good habits early.
Hope this helped and good luck! :)
