Stay healthy: Your weight is fine as long as feel good. Your shape may be what is bothering you. If you exercise and build muscle you will have a more curvy shape. Oftentime low weight females have small breasts so they feel the weight is not distributed to make them look and feel shapely. If you are not doing a lot of training connect with a trainer who will improve your shape and allow you to gain muscle.
