I f you feel comfortable with what you look like ,eat at least 2 meals a day (3 is better) then tell the doctor and the world , you are happy ,you eat and to leave you alone.It is best not too let peoples opinions dictate your looks maybe the scales were wrong also and your weight is fine.But like i say if YOU are HAPPY with YOURSELF then why worry???????

Well, he is right. But, undewrweight doesn't always mean too skinny. Just eat healthy, and exercise. I'm pretty sure the average weight for a girl who's 5'4 is around 100 lbs. So, hopefully, that helped. Just, don't think you're too skinny. The only way you can be too skinny is if your ribs are visible to a certain extent, or you're not eating, or you're under an eating disorder. Those are the only ways that you can be too skinny and should worry about it. Just eat healthy, and exercise, and don't worry.

I think your doctor is right. You're skinny and underweight. I did some research on your body mass index with your given pounds and height and your BMI is 16.168800093282005 apprx. = 16.17. An average BMI is 18.5. 16.17 < 18.5
You should gain a some pounds like 6-10 to be safe just in case. Eat more! There are good foods out there, right? lol But try to stay healthy and fit! Not going way overboard!
Some of my friends think I'm skinny and I'm 5'3 and 104 pounds! I checked my BMI and it said I'm at a healthy weight! I don't know how they think I'm skinny though........

Well I am 5'4 too and about 120 so yea maybe a little bit. But as long as you are not hurting your self by trying to make yourself skiny like so many young girls are trying to do, be happy.
You may just be a smal girl. If you feel good, and you are happy with they way you look and are, then I wouldn't worry.

The rule is, 100 lbs for five feet, then 5lbs for every inch after. You should be about 120lbs or so. Have a pizza, cause nobody wants a bone but a dog!

I feel so sorry for you. Im have never been in that king of position. I have had friend who has though, she went through alot. What you can do is be a bit of a couch potato but only untill your weight gets high enough. Good luck

Sounds good to me. Maybe on the skinny side, but some find it attractive. Just make sure you're getting enough nutrition. No reason you should put your health at risk.
