in about 6 mnths you are going to see a drastic change in your body it sounds perfectly normal,sounds like you are a very well composed girl keep it up with your excersises ..this is the time when you burn lots of energy and probably will work out fot the best i wish a lot of thirteen yo where as active as you .they prefer tv instead of.......good luck to you

yeah! you're so lucky!

you sound hungry

Yes, it is absolutely healthy and completely normal. You are a tall girl and it sounds like your weight is in proportion to what you should be-- matter of fact, you might be a bit on the thin side, depending on your body type.

Sounds like you are healthy to me!

When I was your age I was 5 ft 4 and 118 pounds so you are doing great. Keep up your avid athleteness for life and you will stay the perfect weight for your height which is exactly where you are. Remember muscle weighs more than fat so that muscle you are building is part of the weight. At 13 years old dieting can keep you from developing properly ( bust area, and waist area) so just be proud, hold your head high - you are the perfect height that almost every woman wants to be. And you sound like you have a great exercise regimen which women my age were not encouraged to do when we were your age. Just watch out for injuries that is the only thing that could interrupt your good habits.

wow! i weight 120 and in 5'3. thats a great weight for your height

you need to gain some weight...start weight training...
