    I don't think people in prosperous countries are used to seeing people at a healthy weight. Meaning they're more used to seeing faces with dimples than faces with cheekbones. And sometimes people associate thinner faces with illness. Possibly they mean well, they're just not seeing clearly.

    I'd say that you're healthy at 5' and 115 lb. You lost the weight fairly quick, so maybe they were just concerned that you were adopting unhealthy habits to do so. I'd recommend focusing on working out but maintaining since you're at a healthy weight.

    Did the same people make "concerned" comments when you were overweight??

    they are probably not used to your new look or maybe you look better with a little more weight. my best friend lost so much weight last summer and when we were back in school everyone told her her face was too skinny and it didn't look good on her. her body was fine it's just that her face became too skinny that she looks like she has a disease or something that's why she tried to gain a few pounds back.
