weighte at a perfectly healthy weight
A simple rule of thumb.
A fit, healthy 5' person should be about 100 pounds. Add 5 pounds for each inch.

Where on earth did you read you had to weigh 95lb? It might have said you 'can' weigh 95lb for your age and height, but not that you 'should' weigh this and you 'can' also weigh up to 130lb, but doesn't mean you 'should' be 130lb......you get me? It's just the acceptable range of weights for your age and height. Remember some girls your age might weigh 95lb because they have a small frame or haven't started developing yet. Your weight is actually considered to be ideal for your age and height, so please don't worry. HTH : )

i think this is a good weight for you, don't believe all the hype out there about weight, 95 pounds is way to skinny, imo

Yeah, you're okay. You don't have to be less than a hundred pounds. Remember, being underweight is unhealthy too.
