text: No!  Not only are you within your ideal weight range for your height, you're also too young to diet.  At age 14, your body is still growing and developing and a diet could compromise your body's development.\n\nIf by dieting, you just mean eating healthier, then that's a safe option.  Try to include more fruits, veggies, whole grains; less junk food, saturated fat, empty calories (eg. soda)\n\nInstead of cutting back on calories, try exercising.  This will make you feel better about your body and will give you results too.  Anyways, having a toned body is waaaay sexier than just being a toothpick.\n\nSociety does place a lot of pressure on women and girls to be thin.  But I hope that one day you'll be able to realize that beauty comes in all shapes and sizes.  You need to accept yourself the way you are, and then you can try to eat healthier and exercise more.\n\nIn general, I don't believe in dieting per se.  Healthy eating and exercise is better for your health and still gets results.
