You can't: There is nothing you can do to stop growing. Your growing will stop on its own. You are definitely underweight with a BMI (body mass index) of 16. Stop trying/worrying about your growth which you can't control and address your nutrition. See your doctor. You need to increase your healthy food intake to increase your weight.
