If I were you, I would stop weighing myself and check your weightloss based on how your clothes fit.
I suffered for a long time (or currently suffer - one never truly recovers from it) from anorexia, and even at my worst I weighed 128 and I'm 5'7". I suppose I should chalk it up to the fact that I do lift weights a lot, so my muscles are nicely defined, but it seems crazy that I could weigh that much and yet fit into XS's.
I only weigh about 6 or 7lbs more than I did when I was starving myself, but I look smaller/just as small because I work out a lot more now. I try not to weigh myself because OBVIOUSLY weight does not matter in terms of size. I suppose part of it could be my chest, which seems bigger the smaller the rest of me gets (I'm a 36D-DD).
Anyway, bottom line is that weight doesn't matter at all. If you're concerned, get your bodyfat tested because THAT is what matters.
Congrats on wearing a size 6, though, in a country that is predominently overweight.
