well this is hard to answer seeing as though you don't give your height. if you go to the website listed below, you will be able to see what your bmi (body mass index) is. that will give you a better example on if you are overweight, or have the potential to become overweight. you will also find after you figure out your bmi that there will be helpful tips on maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
it is important to remember, that you need to eat healthy, and exercise. in this world today there are so many people that have eating disorders. that is not the answer. it is very unhealthy for you and you can die from it. please whatever you do, if you think that you need to lose weight, and change your style of eating, let an adult help you make that transition.
and always remember, that beauty is on the inside, and inside, i am sure that you are a beautiful person.

First of all, how tall are you? 4'9" or 5'5". That makes a difference. If you are really worried that you are fat at 12 years old, then you probably are not. With all the hype these days about being a size 2 or something you have to be careful not to be too critical of yourself. If you are healthy and eat right and excercise and as long as you are happy, then I would say that you are fine. The fact that you have lost weight is wonderful, just be careful not to lose too much!

No. I am 13 and last year i weighed around 130. I was 5'2 but the doctor said a good weight for me would be around 115-120. You are just fine but if you dont like your apperence still (even though your fine) just excercise every day or so since you dont need to loose a lot of weight.Any at all in your case but you can just so you feel good about yourself.

my daughter is 5 ft 2 in and weighs about 126lbs she is perfect.
She has a beautiful figure- if anything she looks older than she is
And she has a naturally athletic body.
When I was 12 I was about 5 ft 2 in and weighed about 80 lbs and looked horrible

It depends on your height & also on your bone structure. Not everyone looks the same at 116 lbs.

Oh sweetie, you are WAY too young to start obsessing about this! Eat healthy, get lots of exercise, and as long as your doctor doesn't tell you that you need to lose weight, you're fine. Love yourself the way you look!

Well how TALL are you? If your only 3 feet tall
then 116lbs is fat. If your 6' tall then your skinny.

I would consult a doctor if you feel that you're over weight. I have no idea if you are actually over weight w/o knowing your height and body fat percentage...
