It depends on your age. If you're 14 or below, you're just fine. But if you're over 14, you're underweight. See the CDC growth chart below.

It's fine, I'd say, especially if you are small boned. When I was 15 yrs. old (I'm 38 now) I was 5'5" and weighed 105 lbs. (How I long for the days,and weight, of yesteryear now, ha ha.) As long as you are eating healthy and look healthy.... I was never teased for being thin, but my 11 year old daughter gets it once in a while. I tell her she will be grateful for being fine boned and having high metabolism when she is older.

Yes - it's a good weight according to the body mass index (BMI) - 18.1. 26th percentile for people that height, which means lower than average. If your BMI is between 17 to 22, your life span might be longer than average.

I think it's a good weight... you may be told you're a little on the underweight side, but you're not dangerously underweight or anything! Just don't try to lose any more weight!

Depends on your age, for an adult that is a couple of pounds underweight, but probably nothing to be overly concerned about. HTH : )

BMI of 18, which is underweight. Gain at least 5, if not 10 lbs to be healthy.

it's fine. you should probably try gaining 5 or so pounds, but it just depends on how you look and how your clothes fit
