Why can't I gain weight or keep a steady weight?

My weight just keeps decreasing and decreasing.. Last year, around this time, I was 105 pounds. Now I'm only 85. I'm fourteen, and at a time when I should be growing, I've lost twenty pounds so far. I don't understand how this is happening. I'm not anorexic nor bullemic. I am constantly eating (a well balanced, healthy diet) and yet I just keep steadily going down in weight... why? I am really confused and even more so frustrated. I'm pretty healthy and rarely get sick. So I don't understand it. If you want you could leave your email to get more in depth, but if not, at least try to answer. :/ I could really use the help.

    Your Fast Metabolism is pretty much what is keeping you in shape...along with the exercise you get from other activities you do which is why you keep the weight down...when you grow up a bit more you will see that your metabolism will start to slowly get slower and your body will start to gain the weight back.
