I am too thin!
And too light!
Once upon a time,my classmate told me:"winky,you are so thin,so light.It seems that a wind can blow you away!" Embarassed
Oh,dear,how lovely her words was!
However,I have realized that I am really a little thin and light!
I am a junior high school student of grade 3,but I just have 40 kilogrammes!
Do you feel it is terrible!? Wink
Yes,I quite agree!
It is not only terrible,but also .......(I can't describe it!)
Almost all the girls in my age have at least 45 kilogrammes!Except me!
80 kilogrammes!~~~
Sometimes,I will think:"A wind can blow me away,is it true?"

Aha,who can come here and give me some advise?
I have tried to eat more rice,but it didn't work.I am still so thin,so light!
Oh....
God!!!~~~ Crying or Very sad Crying or Very sad Crying or Very sad

Are you sure your weight is 80 Kilogrammes? A man weighting 80 Kilogrammes isn't considered thin in my country, unless he's more than 190 cm in height (~6.2 feet). And a woman weighting 90 Kilogrammes is considered fat.

I'm 5.6 feet tall (173 cm) and I weight 68 Kilogrammes. I'm considered neither thin nor fat, but I wish I could get rid of at least 3 Kilos.

80 kilograms is heavy for a woman.
I think you mean 80 pounds, which is probably within normal range for your age and sex.
1 kg - 2.2lbs.(pounds)
1 lb = 454 grams
90 kilograms is a pretty big, solid, man.

The girls must mean 80-90 pounds, not kilograms.

As a boy of 16 in California, I was about 178 cm (5'10") and weighed 80 kilos (175 lb.). I was not thin, not fat. My girlfriend then was rather small, 157 cm (5'2")and 47 kilos (103 lb.).

Oh.....
I have never use "pound" ,I often use "kilograms".
So I am not sure 1 pound is equal to how many kilograms?

Dear,
I am quite sorry....
I have made such a bad mistake!
I forgot that I used "kilogram",not used "catty".("catty" means "斤" in Chinese!)
And 1 kilogram is equal to 2 cattys!
And I just have 80 cattys.
It means that I am 40 kilograms!

However,here,in my composition,I have made such a bad mistake!
I just want to tell people I only have 80 cattys,40 kilograms....
However,I told people that I had 80 kilograms,not my real weight!

And now,could you understand my words?
I have 80 cattys,40 kilograms!
I have made a mistake!
I am quite sorry for it!
