Someone
Is 110 pounds at 5'1 3/4 at 15 years old a bit underweight?
Just wondering? Since people are saying I'm skinny....
Also which side am I on the BMI?
                     




crissy so fetch
number 20 which is healthy weight but close to underweight


emoth89
You are good, but if YOU want to gain weight beacuse YOU feel that you are too skinny, then do it.


MaleG1232
No, it sounds healthy.

Don't listen to the BMI standard. I'm 6'2/225. According to the BMI, I'm obese. If you saw me, you would see how silly that standard is.


kanditam2001
I wouldn't say its underweight, as long as you are eating healthy and getting adequate nutrition. At 15, the body is not done growing yet. As you get older, it will be harder to maintain this body weight, so don't worry about having to gain weight.


♥ hello_kitty_xoxo ♥
nope your just fine .


melissa yo.
no your fineee.
im a bit underweightt.
im 5'1 & 14 & wieghh 105.

Since I don't have a pic of you, I can't really say. But from my visual image, If you are 5'1" and 110, it sounds like you are on the lower end of being ok. Some people are just natrually skinny, especially if their family members are small boned or slim as well. Plus, if you are 15, you probably have another small growth spurt ahead of you before you turn 18. But if your family is not naturally slender, and your friends and family are saying that you are skinny they might be trying to gently say that they are worried about your health. Are you exercising/active? Are you eating a healthy diet? If so, then you have nothing to worry about and neither does anyone else.

No, It isn't. I am 5'3 and 105 lbs. I used to weigh 110 and when I went to the doctor they said I was in the 50th percentile.


mister ss
you are fit and lean.

Perfect. There's a BMI on www.seventeen.com. You check it, I'm too lazy.

No, that sound right. If you're all muscle, you may be a bit skinny, but I would never call it underweight.

If you feel light then it's underweight, if not then you are okay

you can check your bmi at http://www.nhlbisupport.com/bmi/ but most importantly, do you think you're underweight? dont let people tell you what you are. you decide if you are underweight or not. hope this helps. =]

I think that is a good weight.
Most of my friends are 14 years old and 100 pounds

Ur fine, ur metabolism just may be slightly higher than everyone elses. I'm the same, I have a really high metabolism & weigh only like eighty pounds but I'm not anorexic or bulimic.

Actually, that sounds almost right for your height. I had a girlfriend when I was 20 something (she was 20 something too) and she was 5'1" and she was at her best weight at 98 lbs. So that extra ten pounds for the 3/4" extra height you have right now (plus the more you will grow) is good for you.

Realistically, if other people think you are skinny, then maybe they are too fat. A lot of the actresses and models you see these days started out rather thin and grew into WOW!

Contrast with me when I was 15, I was 5'3" at 200 lbs. Now that was chubby! Now I am 6'2" at 240 (a bit paunchy) but working to change to a more healthier me.

Sincerely, if you don't see bony ribs, or sunken in shoulders or face, then that's a good sign that you are not underweight...

nope, thats normal :D


Geri93940
No, your weight is in perfect alignment for your age, and height, even though you might appear to be on the slender side. As you mature your body will fill out more, and by the time you're 22 you'll be just the perfect size. It's simply a matter of growing a little more, and you will.


Chelsea
nope

I'm 15, 105 and 5'6


asreid14
No, you are within the average weight range for your frame.

That's a normal weight for your height. Your BMI is 20, which is very good. Normal range is 18-25. BMI calculator below.

So many people are overweight nowadays that often people with BMI on the low end of normal get called skinny.
