um.. yeah i think I make too much topics.
but I was just wondering, am I underweight?
I am a little over 80, 80-85 pounds.
And I'm 11. 5'1 [Does height matter? blink.gif]
Well.. just asking, but am I underweight?
Because I think I have a eating disorder =\ I dont eat or I dont finish my meal.
xquizit
Yeah, you're underweight. I know because I'm 4'11 1/2 and 87 pounds and that's considered underweight.

You don't have an eating disorder unless you don't eat or finish your meals ON PURPOSE.

Like oh my god you're so fat. You should definitely think about liposuction.

Hmm... you know what? I think it's okay because see, you're still 11. When I was 11 (5th grade), I was 4'7-ish I believe, and I was 58 lbs. I was pretty short lol and I was thin when I was 11. Anyway, sorry if this is personal, but have you hit puberty yet? Because if you haven't, then once you hit puberty, you'd probably gain more weight.

Yea you know what? Last year and back when I was a freshman, I didn't feel that hungry. I even lost weight because I actually was 80 pounds, when I was 14. I was about 4'11 at that time.

But it's dangerous if you don't feel the need to eat. Your body needs a certain amount of nutrients and if you're not getting enough of it, it can be dangerous.

My sister-in-law, she was dangerously underweight and she is VERY SKINNY. So she took some pills that made her become hungrier. Then she started eating alot (she could eat for 3 people lol) and now, her waist is bigger. Now she has big hips, but she's not fat, she's still far from that. She's 5'5 and 105 lbs. But before, she could've been 90 lbs! If you want to gain more weight, try asking your doctor for pills like that. But I mean, you probably shouldn't because you're still young. You shouldn't worry about it too much.

Probably not. You might've not gone through puberty yet.
xquizit
Aaah, I didn't take into account that she was 11. Whoopsies there.

aznxdreamer
im underweight. 5'7 and only 90 pounds.
xMiNABBY
I don't think you're underweight... probably just because you haven't hit puberty yet? cuz I used to be like you, I used to have really fast metabolism so I was really thin then I gained alot of weight.. Now I'm like chubby. but I know what you mean by you don't feel like eating... I mean I could like go 2-3 days with out eating.. I know weird.. I'm not anorexic or anything, but I'm just not hungry... but don't worry I'm sure you'll gain weight when you get a lil bit older _smile.gif
lilJdawg
i don't think you are underweight. it's because you haven't hit puberty yet & when you do hit puberty you tend to be hungry & eat more. you don't have a eating disorder unless your doctor says so.

SantaClause'sGF
I don't see why people care so much about how much they weigh or how fat they feel. I would say, If I were you and weighed that much, no offense, but 'd be happy, because I'm 5'8 I'm 12, and I weigh 121..

I think it depends on your body shape and how the weight is spread over your body.

if you were seriously underweight, your parents would have noticed and taken you to a doctor. So don't worry about it.
whomps
Wow you're eleven? So you're in the 6th grade? I'd say you're pretty tall for an 11 year old. And don't worry, you're FINE.
jr0h
no youre not underweight. i think thats average
unfortunatekiwi

XxXAnimeLuvahXxX
Well... I sort of think you're underweight. Be sure to FINISH ALL YOUR MEALS. Because it's bad for your health if you don't anyways. For me, I always eat when i'm hungry. =)

lol...you're soOo not overweight.. go to..

www.teenhealth.org

and search up BMI..and check it.. that's the only way to make sure if you're under or overweight..you can't j/ compare w/ other ppl.. b/c it all depends on many things.. and also there are ppl w/ fast metab. and slow metab. and there are also ppl who are built.. and it might not be built w/ fat..it could be muscle
