I am 12 years old and I think I'm fat. I weight 96 pounds?!

look, everybody has insecurities. mine is a pimply face. i started to think i was fat when all the pretty girls were walking around acting retarded. Then i realized that people that care only about what you Look like are shallow and stupid. if you think badly about others or yourself, you will be miserable for the rest of your life. enjoy life and eat right, and you will be happy. don't be friends with people that judge you be the was you look. did you know that your skin alone weights 10- 12 pounds? and that your bones can weight up to 15 pounds? it's not being fat, its growing up, aging, getting bigger in a good way. i weight 85 pounds and im 13, but im proportionate, and i don't give a rat's *** what people tell me. trust me, by the way you describe yourself, someone has told you that you are fat, or your insecure. and i feel sorry for people that feel that way. everyone should be comfortable with their bodies. believe your friends. their probably right. bye.

Ok, you don't need to loose weight. Just because you are not the flyer in cheerleading doesn't mean you are heavy. Whoever is the lightest will be the flyer, and and 8 year old should be ligher than you. You are perfect the way you are.

I'm 5'8'' and I weigh 138. I don't fly because Im tallest on my squad but why don't you want muscle? It does weigh more than fat but so what if the scale has a higher number if your toned and fit you'll look better. BTW your not overweight.

Stop thinking like that for god sakes your 12 years old, your not fat and you shouldn't think that at all! if you don't believe anyone here check your BMI. google BMI calculator and it'll ask for your heigh and weight and it'll tell you that your average

You don't want to gain muscle? C'mon whats wrong with the media these days? Your underweight!

if you loose anymore ...weight you might as well be committing suicide
because you will harm your immune system..and mess with your Development

That is underweight, sweetie.
