I was aneroxic but I recovered now I'm 141 lbs and I'm 5'9'' that's definitely not too thin for me 125 lbs would be perfect
am I really too thin ?
Depends on how you looked while carrying it. I am 5'7 and 154 right now and I look fine for my weight. if I lost 15 pounds I would look too skinny (I asked a question and posted a pic on gag to see what people would think). If your hips poke out more then your stomach then you are too skinny, rib cage and spine showing then you are too skinny, If you look too skinny for your frame and height then too skinny. Good for you by the way for overcoming anorexia!
don't focus on a number, focus on health (and body fat %)
Some people store fat differently. It's a matter of your figure. If you look like skin and bones then maybe put on some weight but avoid putting it on in fat. Tone up your body at the gym if anything and eat more.
in my opinion (everyone can be different) too skinny is when bones are showing

My girlfriend is 5'6, 145lbs, and looks amazing.
Weight is just a matter of pounds. Looking good is a matter of being in shape. I don't get why people are so obsessed with pounds. Work out more, pay less attention to the scale.
At 5'9, to thin would be under 115 lbs (based on the mybodygallery.com) 125 looks great.
But a general rule is as long as ribs aren't showing, then good.
If I can see the ribcage, she's too skinny.
I agree...there should be enough there to cover the bones no matter what the weight
