Answer 4

It depends on how tall you are if you really want to check you can always use BMI calculator.  

Answer 5

Depends how tall you are.

Well if your 5'2 than you seem way skinny actually. I'm 5'2 and I'm 13 and I'm 10 more pounds than you! Being 70 pounds is way too skinny, you'd be a skeleton.

Answer 6

calculate ur BMI (body mass index)

u can search it on google.

Answer 7

ummm actually your wayyyyyyyyyy underweight. my 5 year old niece weighs only 35 pounds less then you and she's skinny as a rail.

i calculated your bmi an it came out to be 14.6.

when just to be on the borderline of healthy and normal weight to underweight and unhealthy is 18.5.

you need to gain about 20-22 pounds in order to be at the borderline

here's the website.
