Well, I did my BMI yesterday, and I am 5'3, and 7 stone and a bit, and I was on the borderline between underweight and normal. So I would think you would be underweight.

BMI isn't very accurate for people under 18 because they are still growing. If anything its normally on the light side so if you are underweight on it then you really are underweight and shouldn't evenbe thinking about dieting.
