your weight seems to be about right. I'm sure a couple of pounds wouldn't hurt though. and I'm pretty sure you should be eating around 1200 calories a day, don't quote me on that though.

you seem fine, you probably just have a fast metabolism... if you are underweight then it isn't by much... I'm 5'7 and weigh about 125... which is the norm... it sounds like you eat fine... you should look at it as a good thing, you're lucky...

def not 1200 calories. that is the minimum you need 2 survive.
you would need about 1800-2000 at least for your age
