My son is 13 and weighs about the same, he is 5'2". He eats a healthy diet, plays soccer, bike rides and lifts weights a few times a week. Some people just tend to have a leaner body. Make sure you eat a healthy diet and keep active and you will be fine. Remember your growing so you need to eat a lot of healthy food to keep your body healthy and injury free!
Genetics plays a big part of it! Look at your parents, you may take after them? My son takes after his dad. His dad was always thin and never could gain weight until he turned 30. It was not that he wasn't healthy, just that he had a fast metabolism.
If you want to really gain weight you need to eat more calories, but good food like nuts and things like (carbohydrates) pasta, whole wheat peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, yogurt and fruit with granola, oatmeal is a great breakfast food!

You are still growing, its natural. I am 13, turning 14 in April. Am 5'3" and weigh 95 pounds. I am a guy, and people always tease me, so i try to put on some weight, but it is natural.

I'M 12! I'M 5' 3''! I WEIGH 97.5 POUNDS! I suppose I'm fine... I don't feel weak, people around me DO make comments about how I'm skinny, but not sick looking, and I eat what I want pretty much whenever I want. maybe you should talk to a doctor, but I think you're probably just fine!

yes you are a little thin, but it is probably because you are still a kid, therefore, you can eat more than you do now, and your weight won't change much, you are probably gonna be one of those who never has to worry about becoming chubby.

At that height I would say your good, but you would be okay to pack on a pound or two...
