    Get your thyroid checked. Hyperthyroidism can cause weight loss. If thyroid is OK then thats the way your body is.

    How old are you? I'm pretty much the exact same weight and height, I used to weigh 125 and started eating more and quickly went to 144, but now I can't gain anymore, it's weird.
