Additional info, added Wednesday July 13 2005, 12:30 am: i do track and i do eat a lot!. Want to answer more questions in the Health & Fitness category? Maybe give some free advice about: Health? BayBay2daWayWay09 answered Wednesday July 13 2005, 1:44 am: that is perfectly fine. I was 67 pounds when I was 4"9! now I am 5"1 and 80lbs, but the reason for my low weight is two things:
1. imma gymnast! very very high metabolism.
2. its in mah jeans! my mom is really skinny and im just like her.
and i even eat alot too, but it doesnt do anything. you said you do track, well thats probably a reason that ur so light. people who are active have higher metabolisms than people who aren't. as long as you're eating healthy I think you don't have a thing to worry about!

Mackenzie answered Wednesday July 13 2005, 12:04 am: Honestly, it DOES seem a bit low. I would say "normal" weight for someone of your height would be between 90-105. Do you eat regularly? Do you eat until you are FULL? As long as you eat GOOD SIZE portions a few times a day, I don't see it as much of a problem. If you FEEL good, you LOOK good. :) [ Mackenzie's advice column | Ask Mackenzie A Question ]

AskAndy answered Tuesday July 12 2005, 11:42 pm: Yea, you are severly underweight. The bmi chart I'm looking at says an ideal weight for you would be beetween 80 lbs and 100 pounds. [ AskAndy's advice column | Ask AskAndy A Question ]
Jeeves answered Tuesday July 12 2005, 11:38 pm: I think you're okay actually. Most doctors wouldn't consider being naturally underweight a problem, only if it's caused by an eating disorder do they consider it one. I'd say make sure to eat vegetables, fruits and carbs. Stop when you feel full. Also enjoy the fact that you have a metabolism that's as amazing as yours is. Many people would kill a kitten to have what you have.

poa answered Tuesday July 12 2005, 11:26 pm: I've lifted bags of corn that are heavier than you.
MummuM answered Tuesday July 12 2005, 11:25 pm: You are under weight, but there's really nothing wrong with that. It might be something that runs in your family or you could have a high metabolism. But the average weight for you would probably be around 85-90.
