i don't think at 12 she needs to worry as long as she eats healthy. during you teens bodies go through allot of changes watch in a year she can put on allot of weight and fill out more. eat well be active and have fun!!!!

I weighed about 85 pounds when I was 12, and I wasn't underweight- maybe a little on the thin side, but still normal. Then again, I was only 5'1". How tall is your friend?

It all depends on her height and body frame, she is not underweight she might be right for her height and body frame, my friend is 12 and 76 pounds but she is only 4'10 and has a very small body frame so it suits her.

Her weight should be governed by her height. For a 4'2" 12 year old the ideal weight is 60 lbs, for 4'6" it is 71lbs, for 4'10" it is 86 lbs, and for 5'0" it is 96 lbs.

It depends on how tall she is, and her body type.
85 sounds thin, but not overly, especially if she is fairly short.

um... i think on the break of being underweight if she is 5'2. it depends on how tall she is, my friend is 5'3 and 88 pounds.
