Not sure how to put it, but i'm very thin, i weight myself daily, and i'm the same weight, but somehow my arms and legs are getting thinner/skinnier?

Seek help: If you feel that your body is changing you should seek care from your provider. You could be losing muscle mass due to a lack of conditioning or proper exercise, causing your arms and legs to look smaller. Any unusual weight loss should certainly be evaulated by your provider.
