Answers:
That's all right, and I say this b/c the same thing happened to me around your age (I was 14)!. I suddenly gained weight despite me not eating more or less than usual, it's just puberty and you will gain weight!. Also, it's ten pounds of muscle, not of fat! That means you probably don't even look like you gained weight, remember that muscle weighs more than fat, but is leaner than it!. You are at a very good weight for your age and height, don't change that and have fun on the swim team and field hockey!. It's good to know that kids are getting exercise, and that there are barely any obese kids where you live!. As for the three pounds fluctuating, it's nothing to fret about as it is little weight and can be counted as water weight (or after eating something with a lot of sodium likes chips or a big meal, or you just had a long run/swim)!.

Please don't worry so much about your weight, you are all right and don't let anybody let you think otherwise!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
