How thin is TOO thin?
BTW, your face doesn't look sunken in at all!
I'm 6.0 and my goal is 180. I'd be happy in a size 12 I think, or 10. My sister is 5'11 and begins looking waifish around 160. Whatever makes you the most happy is where I think you should end up. Are you having a hard time eating enough to make the losing stop? You're beautiful!

I am 5'10" and 155. Surgeon said 170 would be good, but he figured that my body would go to its "natural" stopping point and then bounce back a little. He thought the natural stopping point would be my weight in high school. I am bony. I hear the same thing "you are soooo skinny." Okay, I will take it. Skinny is good. I don't look bad. I look thin. I imagine you look like me, as we are similar in height and weight, so I will jump out on a limb and say, "hey, baby, you look great.!" =] I am definitely going to get a little sun to assist in what friends and family say because thin and pale seem to mean sick to them. Other than that? I cannot answer how this is too thin. I can answer this way though - if you are taking in the correct calories, the correct amount of protein and water and taking your vitamins - well, your body is going to go where it is going to go. At least that is what my doctor says. When I was in at my year check up a couple of months ago they did say it was "time" to stop losing and start maintaining and I have done that, but recently started running more, hence, I have started losing again. So go figure. My best to you - the plus side of thin? You are healthy!! Peace.
