Would this be a healthy weight for someone my age?!


Question: Would this be a healthy weight for someone my age!?
Ok, so I just turned 13 years old!. I weigh 118 pounds, or about 55 kg in metric units!. I'm 5'1, almost 5'2, which I think is 61" in metric!.
I just started my period, so I know that weight is supposed to fluctuate now!.
I have hypothyroid syndrome, which means that my thyroid isn't really working that well, so I'm very tired, making me lazy, resulting in weight gain!. Soon I will be put on medication for that, and I was told that it would help me lose weight!. (Bare in mind that's not why I am taking the med, it is just for my overall health!.)
I'm also kind of big boned, so I know that makes the healthy weight range raise a little!.
I have breasts on the edge of A and B size!. When I sit down, all have some rolls!.
I have very low self esteem, but I want everyone to be honest about this!. Take in to account that everything I've said is just so you can get the right idea about what my weight really should be!. So, just to recap:

-13 years old
-118 lbs!. (approx!. 55 kg)
-5'1/5'2 (approx!. 61")
-Just started period
-Hypothyroid syndrome (Not to be confused with hyperthyroid)
-Size A/B breasts
-Some rolls when sitting, not when standing

If you could tell me if my weight right now is healthy, it would mean a lot!. I would also appreciate if you could tell me what my ideal weight would be!. Thank you very much! Www@Answer-Health@Com
