In my opinion, the last thing you need on your mind is losing weight at your age. Don't worry about gaining weight, you are still a growing child. You can't stop gaining no matter how hard you try. Don't start losing any more weight, continuing eating and being a preteen.

Dont starve yourself. Thats plenty skinny for that height. Its just something with girls thinking they are fat when they aint. Blame cosmo & all these teen shows with all these "Perfect" girls.

I don't think she's fat at all!, my friend is skin and bones and thought she was fat, and she was trieng to loose weight, i kept telling her she's not and so did MANY other people, i also showed her the averge weight 4 a 13 year old online and she finally reliezed that she wasn't fat and stopped trieng to loose weight. Maybe you should do what i did and kept telling her she's not fat, try to get some of you guys friends support 2.

My daughter weighed 50 pounds for about 3 years.  My wife just kept a watch on her diet and let her grow out of her problem.

I am 15 years old and 5'3 and i weigh 115. You are underweight.  I just went to my doctor yesterday actually. They told me im right under where I should be. So Your weight should be between 115-125.

When I was 13, I was also 5'2. (I'm 21 and still waitin' on that last growth spurt lol)   I weighed 105 pounds (oh those were the days) and I remember the doctor telling me that it was a very healthy weight.  I was also right in the middle, many girls were the same size as me. I'm a middle school health teacher, and most of my girls currently are in the 100 range, + - 10 lbs.\n\nSo the average weight is probably 90-110.  That is just the average, not what it should be.  Many girls are bigger and smaller and are beautiful. :)

I used to weigh 280 and thought I was sexy.   I wasn't!!!    I have lost 50 lbs and FEEL SO MUCH SEXIER!!!    Weight Watchers has helped me learn so many healthy habits and opened my eyes to what I was doing wrong.  And the PLUS side... I am healthier and will live longer without all the risks of the diseases caused by being so overweight.   My goal is to be around 150.  I am 5'3.    AND I find myself looking at overweight people now just to gawk and remind myself that I don't want to be that way.   Lose it, you will feel better!!!!! I promise!

Oh my God!  No, they were being f**ktards who should probably enjoy a good evening of electro-shock to get them back on track as people.\n\nIf you're a 5'7" female, you should weigh anywhere between 127 and 159 pounds.  That would be considered ideal, so the other user (and if you can contact her through her question, please do so) was thin, and you're actually a bit underweight.\n\nI don't care what anyone else says, you're NOT supposed to be able to see the outline of your skeleton, and women are SUPPOSED to be hippy.\n\nGuys really need to spend a bit more time perusing their Boticelli and learning to appreciate the beauty the female form was supposed to possess.\n\nYou're fine, girl.  Anyone who tells you you're fat either doesn't know what they're talking about, or they're just being malicious.  In either case, you shouldn't bother listening to them.  =)

Well, I weigh 147 right now. I have lost 10 pounds so I am proud of myself.  I would really like to get back down to 120  ( that's about how much I weighed 3 years ago).  :)

no she's not overweight. tell her that's her correct weight, so don't stress about it in-less she wants to be anorexic. my little sister has the same weight, and she's 12.

She is NOT heavy. She is ideal weight. It sounds like your sister has an eating disorder. Tell your parents that is important, trust me. Your sister could seriously hurt herself if she continues this way!

It is impossible for TeenHealthFX to predict what the average weight of a 12-year-old should be. It is much easier for adults as there are standards by which doctors and professionals follow. However, these standards are not applicable to growing teens. At age twelve, whether you are a boy or a girl, you are most likely entering puberty. For the next few years your body will begin to drastically grow and change. Each individual will begin this process at different times, girls usually earlier than boys.\n\nAt 12 girls bodies have begun puberty whether it is noticeable or not, and will soon begin to grow in size, which is normally accompanied by weight gain. Boys on the other hand will not enter puberty until 13 or 14 and will just be beginning to grow tall and not fill out until their later teens. So as you can see it is hard to predict an average weight for a 12 year old, just look around at your classmates, some are tall or small and petite, while other have begun to develop and those who still have a few years to go. All of these are perfectly normal, just as many different weights are as well. Weight is only a number that does not consider height or body mass, so try not to get too caught up in it. At this point in your life it is important to keep healthy, eating right and exercising will make sure that your body weight is healthiest for you!

I don't think so. She's still young and probably doesn't have very big curves or anything yet. She's still growing. \n I'm 19, and I weigh about 100 pounds.I'm only 5'0", and healthy. \n\nI wouldn't worry about it, but it's good that you were concerned anyways. :)

It sounds like you may be having hormonal problems, since you didn't say that you had any digestive problems which can also cause you to lose weight.  125lbs is not too thin for your height, and as long as you are eating well, I would not worry about it.  If you have any kinds of digestion problems, or if you feel your heart racing or anything like that, go to the doctor.
