Am I underweight at 5'9" and 120-125 pounds?

Hi thenameshannahh Hope you dont mind but I would suggest that anyone who thinks being anorexic or having an ED is glamourous, they have a look at your response that you posted to this question:

Please let me know if you would rather I delete this link Hannah.

if your 5’9 then its a little umhealthy im 5’7 and weigh 120 and im underwieght but dont let anyone tell you your too fat or too skinny its what you think that matters

Actually Hannah, contrary to what Lisa says, If your weight for your height is too much below the recommended on the BMI index, it is unhealthy for you!

At the moment your BMI reading says:

Your BMI result is: 18.04 - Your weight is in the range that is classified as underweight.

However, you are only slightly underweight by about 4 pounds or so. Not a major worry though.

Many people dont need to lose weight but just need to tone up. Maybe that is something you may like to look into rather than lose more weight that would certainly make you underweight and unhealthy according to doctors and nutritionists.

no I dont think that you are at all I think that its the way that you see yourself

okay so you sound very thin., not necessarily bad. being really skinny is not bad, like many people say…its fine as long as your HEALTHY. so you should eat about 200 calores every 2 or 3 hours. it helps keep your metabolism running and working properly. when you deprive yourself of calores, then your body cannot work and so when you feed it again, it doesnt know what to do so it just turns to fat…just eat high fiber and lean proteins. if you eat carbs, eat them in the morning.

jsut make sure your healthy but skinny

hah thanks guys.
