I am 15 years old, and I am about 5'7 1/2 or taller. I want to know what is an appropriate weight for me. I've lost 20 pounds over the summer, and am not exactly sure how. But I am a ballerina so it is required to be very thin. Right now I am about 113-114lbs. What do you think?

Since you are only 15 it is hard to say. Normal for a 15 year old is different that normal for a 25 year old. Go to this website and figure out your BMI based on your age.

Gonna depend on your bone structure, are you small frame large frame? Is it muscle? I'd say it wouldn't hurt to put a few more lbs on maybe up to 120. Not sure how you lost 20 lbs? That's not good. Did you just start dance? That would do it, if not, I'd have your mum take you to the dr. for a check up and discuss it with him. Nicole Ritchie thin is NOT sexy.

I personally think that if you lost the weight safely that is fine. Occasionally, women can lose weight because they are going through puberty etc.

Here is an ideal weight chart: http://www.healthchecksystems.com/heightweightchart.htm
Looks like you are at least 10 pounds underweight. Be careful that you don't get anorexic.
