I agree, aznlilly. You are already under a normal weight for a person 5'6" tall. About 130 would be better. If you don't like your shape, wait a while. You haven't yet done all your growing and your body will rearrange itself. Be careful that you don't slip over the edge from maintaining a healthy weight into the trap of anorexia and eating disorders. You are still growing and maturing and your body needs a balanced diet with vitamins, minerals and nutrients to be healthy. Exercising moderately will help shape your body.
I also wonder if your parents know about your eating. You are already at a normal weight for a person your height, especially an adolescent. Not eating sugar, starch, flour etc is good for anybody. But include vegetables and fruit. You should be following Atkins Maintenance level, not trying to lose more pounds.
I hope you will carefully consider what you are trying to achieve and ask your doctor to advise you about a good weight to maintain. Ignore the numbers on the scale & enjoy your youth.
Hugs.
