And what's the problem? you sound normal to me.
normal
Considering the fact that most kids are overweight I wouldn't compare myself to anyone in your school. Just give it time and you'll gain a little weight as you get older.
got nothing to worry about it girl, its not the size but the shape that matters, as long as you have a well proportioned body then thats perfect, small is powerful, me I'm only 5'1 but Im comfortable with it.
I think is way pass your bed time.
Who says any of this is a problem ? If YOU think it is, talk to your doctor and don't seek the opinions of people on the net who don't know you or anything about health.
dont worry about your size, just make sure that you get enough of all the food groups so that you have proper nutrition. besides, a lot of kids today are much bigger than people used to be.you are more normal.
I guess the big question is, "Have you gone through puberty yet?" If you haven't, then you should be wearing girls clothes. If you have, then maybe you're just small. Everyone is put together a little differently. If you're eating everything you should be according to the food pyramid, then you're fine. You're meeting all your nutritional needs, and don't need to worry. If you're still concerned, ask your parents to make a doctor's appointment for you, and voice your concerns to him/her. That's what their there for.
omg no way! me 2, but im about an inch taller! thats so creepy.its ok. my friend is only 4'6, she weighs about 78 pounds. she only wears a size 10 also. me, i'm a size 12, but the waist line is WAY too big. i was worried als when i found out how small i was compared to other 13 year olds, but you have to remember that we're still growing. u still have about 5 more years.
p.s. are ur parents "small" also? becuase it could be genes, u know.

Your skinny but normal. Your probably just a late bloomer or small boned, or even better a great metabolism. Trust me its easy to gain weight, don't worry too much about it just make sure you eat healty. Thats why skinny is scary and being fat is bad is because your not eating healty and doing healthy things. Go online and research BMI index you should range around 17-25% to be healthy. Then look at the food pyramid and see what they recomend as a healty diet. 3,500 cal.= a pound of body weight. And have fun being skinny now cuz as you get older its hard to stay that way.

I was the same when i was 13 only i was about 5'2 and i was made fun of by my sisters. So i decided to gain weight, and they made fun of me for that, don't go around changing your body for other people and what they think or you will develop a eating disorder.
