well girl bodies tend to change quite abit especially at your age .... i no how you feel =]

a good indictation of weather you are a good weight is by working out your bmi [see below] obvisously it is not completely accute due to muscle wieghing more than fat so if you are really muscly then it may not be completly accurate =]

so to work out your bmi;
by taking you height in metres [1.75m]
square your height [3.06025]
take your weight in Kg [51.71]
then take your weight by you height squared [16.89731]
using this you can deduce that you are underweight
also to make it easier you can use a bmi calculator like the link below;

too skinny.. but then again who am i to talk.. 5'8 110

Well, you're too skinny in the first place. But, you grew two inches and when you grow you should gain 5 pounds for every inch you grow- your
good so stop worrying!

your weight is absolutely fine......dont worry about it :)

You seem to be a very healthy weight. They say that you should add 5 pounds for every inch in your height. So, your about 5'7", then really, a normal weight would be up to 135.

Example: 5'1" would equal 105lbs., 5'2" would equal 110lbs.

And as long as you eat healthy and exercise, your fine. You weight seems totally proportioned for your height. If you don't believe me, check out a BMI calculator.

you're not overweight.
as you grow you put on a lot of weight

Yup your good, don't worry ^^

your fine, if anything too skinny
so please don't obsess over yourself and get a bad body image or get an eating disorder
find some other hobby to do and quit worrying so much

dang!!!! you are so lucky!!! i wish i were that skinny and tall. i'm 5'2 and and only a couple pounds less than you (i'm 15). no, you're definitely not a fatty. if anything you're underweight, but as long as you're eating right you're fine. of course you're going to gain weight. it's called puberty.

yeah you're underweight, anyways why care about it since you're already naturally skinny... enjoy what you have and dont let me smack you :)
