Answers:
You're technically underweight!. Somebody 5'0 should be 100 lbs, then add 5 lbs for every inch!. Your "ideal" weight would be 150 lbs!. However, everybody has different body types and structures!. Also, you're only 14, so I wouldn't worry, UNLESS you're forcing yourself to stay that weight by extreme dieting and exercising!. Otherwise, you're fine! (:Www@Answer-Health@Com

you are underweight!.
your BMI (body mass index) should be between 18!.5 and 24!.9 to be healthy, while your's is at 17!.2!.
to gain some weight, you could try weight training!. muscle weighs more than fat, so doing weights will make you gain weight, and not fat!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

you're at a healthy weight =) don't worry about it, you're only 14!. there's a bmi calculator on my profile!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
