It doesn't really matter how much you weigh, but it's your body fat ratio and BMI that matters. That seems like a good weight to me any way!

A healthy weight is determined by the ratio of a person's weight to height and whether they're female/male. You can find your healthy weight by googling a "BMI chart"

Well, I have a gut showing, at least I believe so. I used to struggle with bulimia and I still have a really fucked up sense of self image. Was just wonderring if I lost 15 lbs, that would still be ok, right?

Well personally I think you should gain weight. Considering how tall you are I think it'd be a waste not to put some strength in there with some weights. You should gain weight put in muscle probably will help your self image too.
