  Welcome to Fun Advice!

  The teen weight charts don’t show a weight for your age and height. The Adult chart, however, suggests that you should weigh between 79 & 97 pounds, so you might be a little underweight.

  According to an Adult BMI calculator, you are underweight.

You have a BMI of 15.8.

BMI is equal to or less than 18.5 (Underweight)

A lean BMI can indicate that your weight maybe too low. You should consult your physician to determine if you should gain weight, as low body mass can decrease your body’s immune system, which could lead to ilness such as disappearance of periods (women), bone loss, malnutrition and other conditions. The lower your BMI the greater these risks become.   bmi calculator:
