65 pounds is underweight. A 6 year old should weigh 65 pounds. 77-95 pounds is an appropiate weight for your age and height.

you are way underweight
A 11 year old (female) child who is 65.0 pounds and 5 feet and 1 inches tall, has a body mass index of 12.3, which is below the 5th percentile and is considered to be underweight.
Being underweight or at risk of being underweight means that your child has a body mass index for his age that is lower than the 5th percentile. This can be normal, especially if your child has been growing and developing normally, has a healthy diet, and is active and energetic. However, being underweight can also be a sign of a problem and a sign of an Eating Disorder. Be sure to talk to your Pediatrician if your child is underweight.

Sweety, you should be between 99-105 lbs.
