You shouldn't worry about it unless you have an eating disorder. Being 11 you will not know your real body until you are fully grown. Just keep being a kid.

If you're 11, then probably not. However, I had a friend who is in her 20's and is around the low 90's with being 5'2, everyone thinks she is underweight with an eating disorder. But I do know for sure that she loves to eat, especially cheese and anything chocolate.

If you don't have an eating disorder than NO - you're at your appropriate weight. Let's face it: body composition, structure and genetics plays a major part in ht/wt calculations. My cousin somes froma family of skinny people and she's probably 5'2" and 90 lbs drippiing wet. My other cousin comes from a family of "big" people and she's probably 130lbs at the same height.

I don't think it's anything you need to worry about. As long as you're not depriving yourself of food, purging yourself, or any other unhealthy weight control habits then you're probably fine. Don't gorge yourself to get to a certain weight as that can cause it's own problems.
BTW anorexia and bulimia are not things you suddenly catch like the cold, they are psychological problems that develop through your own choices in eating habits.

You are very skinny, but according to your BMI, you are a healthy weight. If skinniness runs in your family, than you are probably ok. Have you gotten your period yet? If you haven't hit puberty, its normal to weight less.

I would say so, just not so severely underweight that it makes a difference
