Only if you put one in each pocket. Even tho they have sugars , they also have a lot of good nutients and anti-oxidants.

14 year olds should not use adult BMI charts as they are still growing. Your doctor knows you best and if you are healthy you are probably all right. Have you just had a growth spurt and are waiting for your weight to catch up? Are you a fidgety person, never still, always on the go? that will increase your metabolic rate and keep your weight down. In a country where the citizens are rapidly becoming obese with all the attendant health problems I wouldn't worry about being a little underweight, just eat a healthy diet, exercise and be thankful you don't have to watch the calories.
Taking laxatives alot is very bad for health actually. Using them on a daily basis for weight management can cause an intestinal rupture. (Super painful!) I know managing weight is super hard, but there are safer ways. Try an mantain by eating smaller meal, that are mostly protiens and fruits and veggies. Also, keep up an exercise regimine. As long as you stay away from the sweets, you won't get bigger. Stop using the laxatives and start doing that. :) I garentee the weight won't come on again!:) Good luck
