hey kk!
I've lost alot of weight recently too. Well I dunno. I bet its the topomax.
5'11 !!! I'm 5'10. So 135lbs....that's pretty slim for a 5'11 er! Although you may have a small frame. I'd tell you what my weight was, but I can't do stone and lbs or just lbs. Its about 63kg if thats means anything to you! I'm abit podgier than you.
Well anyway if your periods haven't stopped and you're eating a balanced diet, then well, is it really a problem?? I dunno. Have you worked out what your BMI is? well I just did it for you..

And you're 18.8 which is still within the 'normal' weight range of 18.5- 25 ...... (although some class 20+ as normal, but I prefer the 18.5 one coz I've been like 18.5 too, and eating tons, and there was nothing I could do about it).....so.
You could try eating more? More snacks maybe? Do people comment that you're too skinny? Some people just are small framed and can be quite light and still not look skinny or are too thin, if you know what I mean. If people start saying 'here, eat this, you're looking too gaunt' then I'd start to worry...
