You have a screwed up image of yourself. A body image like that can lead to depression, anorexia, bulimia, or suicide later on in life.
Now see, I’m ACTUALLY fat (350 pounds) and you know what I like to do when I feeling really down on myself? I boost my self image by looking at picture of girls who are fatter than me. (And yes, there ARE people fatter than me!)
I can send you a picture of myself if you like, and you can just repeat in your head over and over
“OMG at least I don’t look like her!”
It’s okay, I wouldn’t mind. ^_^

That is an ideal weight for you height. Since you are already working out, you aren’t likely to continue gaining. Weight has a lot to do with the structure of our frame. Of course, many people just don’t notice as they put weight on and it slips up on them. Set a weight that you are comfortable with and if you are near that, fine, but even a couple of pounds adds up. I think you are very wise to be aware of weight, but you don’t need to agonize over it either. Good luck.

You are definitely at a healthy weight. It’s alright- I gained nearly 10 pounds over the summer! 2-5 pounds is barely even noticeable, so don’t worry about it. I went through anorexia, and it’s the hardest thing I’ve ever gone through, and I’m still recovering. I still do sometimes weigh myself nearly 20-30 times a day, I’m constantly scared of the numbers. Focus on creating leaner muscle by doing situps, weights, push ups, etc… to get a “toned” body. My friend weighs 140 and you would probably guess she weighs 120. Seriously! I wish all the best for you.
