Go to BMI for kids at http://kidshealth.org/kid/exercise/weigh... Plug in your numbers, get it to calculate your BMI, and check it out on the graph for girls. Kids and teens have a different BMI profile from that for adults. What's OK for adults might be overweight for a teen.Health Question & Answer
If you weigh what you said and then do the calculation then it means that you are under what you should be- do the math...
