I think you're fine. As long as you do eat, there's nothing to worry about. Just make sure to fuel your body with good foods, and you'll grow just fine. Nobody's body is done growing at age 12. People called me giraffe when i was 11, and now I look like an average female. You have nothing to worry about.

It's not weird for growing girls to be skinny...but having said that, you are abnormally skinny and I would get your thyroid checked by the doctor...it's a simple bloodtest and if there is something wrong then you will just have to take pills. If your thyroid levels are normal then I would suggest eating a high protein diet which includes things like nuts, red meat, and cheeses. Your doctor can refer you to a nutritionist to get you on a diet that will bulk you up a bit.

there is no longer something incorrect with you being 80 3 pounds. if in case you've an fairly intense metabolism it truly is why you could devour a lot yet income no longer something. yet that is effective. i change into in all likelihood your body even as i change into your age. I actually have a chum who's your age and shes an identical way. (its this woman i journey with.) tell your chum now to not rigidity. that in case you accepted practitioner idea it change right into an issue then you fairly, your accepted practitioner, and your mom and father will cope with it. good success! im constructive your chum is merely in touch about your wellness. she cares. :) take care.

You are seriously, seriously underweight. In fact, your are barely more than half of your ideal weight.
I'm more than willing to bet that you haven't yet had your first period, and that you may not yet even have breast buds. Yes, you are THAT underweight.
If you don't see yourself as being seriously, dangerously underweight, then you most likely do have an eating disorder of some type.
See your doctor and BEG for help.

Hey ... fear not !!!
yes ! you are tall ! BUT only 12.
get these fashion ideas out of your head and just be you.
anorexia and bulimia are a sickness Involving hiding and deception.
My opinion is 95% of young people are borderline FAT.

Try adding high calorie protein shakes to you meals. It sounds like you need protein.
