at 14 and your height you are just fine.might even need to put on a few...but if you are asking if you are fat...the answer is NOT EVEN CLOSE. be comfortable with yourself.maybe even gain a few pounds..but sounds like you are right where you should be.and dont worry bout bmi..you are too young to worry bout such things.

The BMI is "just" a body calculator.
I would say your 17.1 which makes you underweight. Big deal.
Your still normal.
Just eat healthily and exercise. I wouldnt worry too much about it girl. When I was your age, I use to worry about these things. I am 23 now, and I dont worry over these issues anymore.
To top this girl... you are still growing. So dont let this issue effect you. Your probably are a good looking girl.
I hope this helps... and good luck!!

Go to this links page and click on government BMI plus enter age. At your age it may be fine but it will tell you what percentage of 14s are skinnier than you. Don't enter info under adult. Then click on advice for teenage girls to help you be less concerned.

At 14 you should stop worrying, switch off your computer, and start leading a normal 14-year-old life. Start asking these Q's in another 4 years' time!

Me and also you bro, are interior the same boat. Heh yet of coarse i do not want a woman. I dream of a good center jap guy. i want to have a alluring bilingual,bi-racial son. i'm only about obsessed on this. i do not date in any respect because i'm able to't settle for something yet a center jap guy. I picked the country of Israel because they are better open to those kinds of issues. i'm no longer even Jewish yet i'm so pushed by ability of this I surely were reading Hebrew on my own like a mad-woman. in case you locate any information in this, do not hesitate to percentage. I surely do not comprehend if those emotions are accepted (i presumed it changed into...yet um..yeah..what do i comprehend, i'm expieriencing it lol)

You're a little underweight, but at your age, that's normal! As long as you're eating healthily and enjoying your food and your life, don't worry about it.
