Hey. Well, your BMI [body mass index] is 16. That is REALLY low. You must be very skinny, because for 5'6, 100 pounds is underweight! You should probably for your height be around 110, Im guessing. Talk to your doctor about how to HEALTHILY gain weight.

Your way underweight. Doctors told me that every inch over 5fett you add five pounds. In other words you should be around 130 pounds since your 5'6. You Prob need to talk to your doctor about it

i would go for underweight because im 6 inches shorter than you and 15 pounds heavier than you although because of your age its hard to control your weight. i would say anwhere from like 100-130 pounds is just fine and you should be by the time you are like 16 or so atleast like 120... but for now you are fin.. just dont lose weight!

Youre underweight.

"You are emaciated. Consult your doctor or dietitian!" According to www.am-i-fat.com.

"You are emaciated. Consult your doctor or dietitian!", is what you would see if you went to [Link](Mouse over link to see full location) and clicked on "Am I Fat?". You would see that (according to [Link](Mouse over link to see full location)) your BMI (Body Mass Indicator, which is the percentage of your body that is made up of fat) reads 16%.


If you didn't know, "emaciated" means "wasting away". To answer your question directly, you are not overweight. You are underweight. The website is telling you to pack on some pounds, before you plummet too far down the hill.


For some tips of motivation and getting on track to a healthy weight gain, I'm suggesting the following websites to you:
