Hi,
You are fine. Your parents and you have fast metabolism. Thats all! I have fast metabolism too, I am probably about 105 and I am 5'6 to 5'7-ish! I don`t know how old you are, but for your height, about 100 is a perfect weight! If you feel self-concious about being skinny though, there are diets to help you gain a few extra pounds if you feel you need it!

Hope I helped a bit!

YOUR NOT UNDERWEIGHT..it just means you have a faster metabolism than most people. As long as you eat your veggies and lots of protein..you're fine.

Yes you are but not severely. You only need to gain about 5 pounds. Just eat a little more than you already are. But really the key is how you feel. If you feel weak and lightheaded you're not eating enough. If you feel fine and you can't see your ribs,you're ok.

Technically, you're at a healthy weight :o). It sounds like it's a genetic // metabolism thing. I wouldn't worry about it.

No, you probably just have a fast metabolism, so you burn more calories than most people. Bring a big lunch to school once in a while so people will know you arn't anorexic.

Actually u aren't u are just built smaller than some ppl. I have looked up that u r in the right range. It just depends on how tall you are. I bet ppl always say that becuz they wish they were ur size. So don't wry about it. And also as u say u get it from ur parents also. I hope I helped<sarah>
