I'm 12 and concerned about my wieght!?!

Question: I'm 12 and concerned about my wieght!?

When i was younger, i was SO skinny and ppl would tell me how skinny i am. When i was 11, i would a pretty normal 65 lbs., but i would still get comments about how skinny i was. I've always LOVED chicken nuggets. Chicken strips, fingers,,, whatever you call it, it's fried chicken. i ate it all my life and i never had an issue. Now that I'm 12, i'm noticing myself gettign a tad bit chubbier and i work out in gymnastics all the time. I wiegh a whopping 98lbs! Is this normal?

Answers:

It's very VERY normal. Please, listen to me, you're NOT fat, everyone grows, and being thin isn't the most important thing in the world. If you diet right now, you may not grow in the future, you may mess up your metabolism so every time you eat you store fat. You should just eat normally like always, and not look at those unrealistic images of models, alright? because all of them, 99 % anyway, are photo shopped. They're getting whiter teeth, slimmer waist, longer legs, perfect hair. But non of it is real. We're only human, and no one is perfect. At 12 years old I NEVER worried about my weight. And you shouldn't even worry til you're full grown. And you're still in the process of shedding baby fat!

You're just growing, that is very normal. Plus, 98 pounds isn't even that bad. I was about 125 when I was 12, and it was a healthy weight.

Hope I helped :)
