First I do not agree with listening to other people when it comes to how you look and feel: do you.
BUT you do need to be concious about and consider your health. Typically a BMI that low is considered underweight which can be just as or more dangerous as being overweight. The way to raise your BMI into a healthy range is to either gain weight or shrink. Take your pick.

I think as long as you are happy and healthy, you need to be happy with yourself and not listen to what people think. But I also think you need to be cautious because that does sound like you could still put on ten pounds and be model like without being too slender for your height. :)
You'd technically be underweight.
But is that where your body sits?
Haha, I'm 5'8" and 118. I get called anorexic all the time.
If it's natural, you're fine.
Plus, we're young. Our metabolisms will eventually drop and lead to some inevitable weight gain
If you like your look then keep it. There are plenty of people who can appreciate a slim body and most of the people who say you are too skinny are simply jealous of you.
I think that when you allow other people's "opinions" to dictate your choices, you relinquish the ownership of your self worth. Love yourself enough to accept "you" for who you are that includes Mind, Body and Soul.
5 10 and you only weigh 115? Don't shoot for the super model look you fool. Go for the you look. If you're happy with yourself your happy in general. Yes, you need to put on more pounds. Good luck.

OK you could afford to gain some weight but only muscle. If you gained 20 lbs muscle you would just look so much more better than 20 lbs of fat. The key is a balanced diet , don't worry you will not bulk up most likely. Like me I'm 5'9 155 big arms and legs and abs
No matter what you do, someone out there will disagree with it and just have to share their opinion on what you really should be doing.
You like the way you look, rock it!As long as you're confident, stay the way you are. You are beautiful the way you are. I have been told I need to gain some weight too, but I feel confident just the way I'm so, if you're happy with yourself, don't listen to other people.
To hell with what they say. What you think is all that matters.
I don't think that's bad, as long as you are healthy and eating right.
Well, kind of yeah. Just add more protein to your diet, and start weight training. Muscle is heavier than fat, and that way, you won't gain fat in the odd wrong places.
Yes it is. That puts your bmi at 16.5. You're underweight and are at risk of the various health problems associated with being underweight. Your bmi needs to be between 18.5 and 24.9
You look nice... but squats and lifting some free weights will help you gain the weight you want :-) god bless you
At your weight you are medically considered underweight. That's all you should need to know.
Couldnt hurt to gain weight, also you may feel better
Sounds like you're pretty skinny, but as long as you're healthy who cares?
