I am 130 pounds at 5"4, I am 14 years old, and I am a girl. I feel so fat. I am medium or small framed, and I am a size 0 in clothes.

youre normal, dont worry about it.
my girlfriend is 120 and she's only 4'11"
she isn't fat either, she may look a bit solid, but she's still hot ;)
search on yahoo! for BMI or body mass index, there is a wealth of information out there about this method of calculating a healthy weight.
and hey, don't ever worry about your weight. I know it seems like you're old now, but you've got your whole life ahead of you. Life is too enjoyable to worry about things like that.

No silly! I would recommend going to this website about BMI. Body mass index (BMI) is a calculation that uses your height and weight to estimate how much body fat you have. Too much body fat is a problem because it can lead to illnesses and other health problems. BMI, although not a perfect method for judging someone's weight, is often a good way to check.
Go to this website
http://www.kidshealth.org/kid/exercise/w...
THis website is designed for people 2 to 20 years old. It helps you figure out your BMI and allows you to compare it to others around your age and compare gender. It has nice charts too
But I wouldnt worry. I am a nurse in florida and all i say to my patients is make sure they are active. Start a kickball game, go running with your dog, play some kind of game with your friends, take the starirs instead of the elevator, etc. You being a size 0 sound like you are doing well. You sound tiny :) From what you have said you sound a-okay, and definatly not fat

If you will pardon the phrasing: fat chance! I'd like to see you squeeze 130 pounds on a 5'4" frame into a size 0 outfit. I dated a very nice young woman at one point who was pleased she could fit into size 0 clothing at that height. . . weighing a good 30 lbs less. To put it in perspective for you, my fiancee (who is athletic, rather than skinny) is 5'8" and weighs 130 lbs. So, you'll have to pardon my skepticism.
Edit: If you are going to use BMI I hope it works better for women than for men. I, regretfully, am about 13% body fat, give or take (I just cannot seem to get rid of the last 3% or so). My BMI exceeds 25 due to my weight. . . because BMI totally fails to take into account body composition. It works reasonably well for sedentary men, but categorizes such people as Michael Jordan and Arnold Schwarzenegger as overweight and obese (respectively). What a crock!

Size 0 I do not think you are fat at all. Do not do that to yourself, I have battled Anorexia for 12 very very long years and you are starting down that road having that thought process. Start an exercise program I always feel better when I am working out.

How are you 130 and a size 0?? Is that true? I'm 5'4 and 105 and a 0 and sometimes a 00... if I was 130 I'd be chunky!

If you wear a size 0 and you lose weight, you are going to look sick. If you are 130lb and wearing a size 0, you are probably quite athletic with a lot of muscle. So what are you worrying about? HTH : )

Do me a favor: When you get a boyfriend, do NOT EVER ask him that!!!
You're fine, you're 14 for crying outloud. Just worry about having fun, play sports, eat fruits, vegetables, drink milk, have decent meals, and enjoy life.
As long as you do those things, you'll not have to worry about how you look.
