Underweight
hi, my daughter is 12 and weighs about 6 stone 8lb, she has got cystic fibrosis though so finds it hard to gain weight, she is just under the 5oth centile for her age meaning she is just under average she is 12 so if you weigh the same as her then im guessing as your underweight, but im not too sure when i did your BMI based on 6 stone 7lb it showed this..........
Your BMI is 17.5 If your BMI is less than 18.4 you are underweight for your height. Are you eating enough calories every day? People who are underweight may be at risk from health problems, including loss of bone density, malnutrition and irregular periods (women).
However, you may be naturally slim and will not need to change your eating habits. The best way to ensure that your weight is healthy for your height is to speak with your GP.
hope this helped! nikki x
