Question:

Underweight, but not by choice?

I went to the doctor's today..and my BMI is 16.5. BTW, I'm 13, turning 14 in October. I don't really look underweight (well I'm skinny but I'm not anorexic).

From just knowing myself, I get full easily but I also get hungry easily. I'm not picky about my food, and I don't exactly eat everything healthy.

I don't really feel bad or anything, but is being underweight wrong? Should I gain some weight? I mean it's not that I'm really skinny, I can see fat in my thighs/belly...but is there anything I should be worried about?

BTW, I have my period and everything, I feel totally fine. I got it when I was 12. Everyone was saying being underweight is bad, but honestly I feel fine.
