Love yourself for who and what you are. If it gives you any idea, I am 5'3" and 125 pounds. And people tell me I'm skinny. My best friend is 5'7" and 135 pounds. People tell her that she's skinny too. If you begin to love yourself unconditionally, people will see that and admire you for it. I think it would help if you try not to look in the mirror as much. You will begin to think of yourself for who you are, not what you look like. Don't stop eating; you're not fat. Even if you were fat, you wouldn't lose healthy weight by not eating. It just doesn't work like that.

I like to run because it makes me feel better about how I look. That may sound weird because I definitely don't run enough to lose loads of weight or get tons of muscle, but it just makes me feel better as a person. Like I'm doing something to stay healthy. So if you don't do anything athletic, try going outside and running around. I think it's fun and it makes me feel good.

Your weight is totally ok.
You need to stop seeing yourself in your own eyes, and see them in others.
It's ok to eat, if you don't binge.
See yourself as you and don't worry about your weight. Eat when you want to (but healthily) exercise every now and then, and you will be completely fine.

Try to focus on other parts of your body. Maybe your eyes or hair, how you could make yourself look better.

Don't think about your weight, and soon you will stop obsessing :)
