Is my too-thin friend OK...? URGENT!

I have a friend who is 12 years old, about 4”9 tall and just 4 stone 4 pounds. Her arms are like sticks and she looks really skinny. If I tell her she should eat more, she just says, ‘no, I’m fine, leave it,’. At school, she’ll only have a little salad or a tiny bowl of spagetthi, with LOTS of water. Should I be worried or am I just over-reacting? Please help ASAP! xx

Answer #1

Er, yeah, 60 pounds / 27.2 kilos. And that should also be 4 foot 8 inches as well, sorry.

Answer #2

“4 stone 4 pounds” …?
