I get the impression that the two people before me don't entirely "get" it, but at least they're trying. Anywho.
You need to find something more important. It's as simple as that. You need to find something you care about more than you care about your weight. You're very close to being underweight, and to lose more would be dangerous, no matter how you do it.
That said, exercise is great. It tones your muscles, makes you feel stronger, and it gets the endorphins going. Plus, it distracts you from food if you tend to binge eat, or from feeling that you ate too much when you didn't.
Try and remember what your body does for you. It's amazing, really. It moves, it feels. You can walk and run and smile without even thinking about it. It's an incredible machine, and you deserve to take care of it.
Why is having a perfect body important to you? Is there really such a thing? What are you really trying to accomplish--admiration, pride, attention (that's not necessarily a bad thing, you know). How can you get what you want in a positive way?
Try and find something to keep you busy when you want to purge. I find that knitting has helped me deal with my food issues because not only is it a distraction, but it also releases some physical tension. Maybe you can find something similar.
I really suggest you seek counselling, as well. Doing this with help makes it much easier, and it will help you get to the bottom of why you're doing it, thus helping you fight it and prevent a relapse in the future.
Good luck to you. Be safe.

Sorry but you don't need to lose weight. You're underweight actually for a 5'3, 15 year old girl. Keep in mind that, Belimic girls have throat damage later. REALLY BAD! So I would definately stop if I were you. Later it will damage your galbladdar (what makes you throw up) and your vocal chords. So think of that and more future health problems whenever you feel an urge, 'kay? Another thing that might help you would be to develop a new hobby or something. Eat grapefruit to stay healthy (it burns 10 calories a grapefruit and keep in mind that one pound is 3500 calories) and stay away from carb diets. They're un-safe, risky, and harder. If you puke it all up, you'll be skinny for the time-being but later it will catch up to you. When you don't eat your cells build together because the disgestive system gets confused and has to build together to stay at a good weight. Since it's confused it stores together fat cells until you start eating again and it takes longer to get back to a healthy weight. So don't risk that happening, m'kay?
Stay away from sugar because it builds up fat. But one dieting myth is the fact that if you eat foods late at night you'll get fatter. Not true! So enjoy your healthy weight and if you absolutely MUST feel free to use those tips.
Hope I helped
