Im an 18 year old girl in high school. And I just went to get my check-up, and I found out that I'm 99 1/2 pounds! I'm also 5 feet and 1 inch tall. For my height (5'1) is this the average weight for a 18 year old 5'1 girl like me?!?!? I'm not anorexic, nor am I bulimic. My parents say I don't eat alot. Which is true. But I feel healthy, is this a problem?!?!?

You are pretty short, so your weight is fine!

Are you concerned with your weight, or you have a fear of/strong desire to NOT gain weight? If not, then you don't have an eating disorder and 99.5 lbs is fine (well within the normal limit). I'm about 100-103 (depending on the day, haha), and I'm 5'3". I don't look "skinny" at all either, so even though 99.5 pounds may SOUND terribly thin, I bet that you look/feel healthy. Hope this helps! :-)

You are fine. Your weight is within reason, for your height.
