OMFG to the first answer..... thats like the 44TH time i saw that stupid site while answering questions.
ANYWAYS-- well....99 pounds is quite..... light...especially for a 19 year old....and average 12 year old weighs about that much.
Maybe ur shorter than average?
Maybe u dont hav hav enuff calories in ur body?
Maybe u dont sleep rite?
these are the reasons that might cause u to be so light....
u can put on weight. But try to do it healthy-ly (if thats a word)
like.... MILK SHAKES can help u gain weight. and there not unhelthy too. try to drink alotta milk shake .
good luck :)

It depends upon your weight. If you are short for your age it shoudlnt be all that abnormal, however that is teh weight a 6th grader should be. It may be serious. Dont eat junk food to gain weight. Working out makes you gain weight (suggestion).

Well how tall are you? If you're like 5'2 or so then your fine, but any taller you may be to thin! With protein drink you may be just burning what fat you do have----try energy bars!!

yes there could be a health problem.
your thyroid controls your metabolism, and you could have an overactive thyroid disorder.
i would ask your doctor about that possibility,

depends how tall you are.. if you're over 5'5" then I'd say it's unhealthy.. but if you're under 5' then you're probably fine..
