    5'1 and 123 pounds sounds perfectly normal to me. Most men don't like skinny women. I blame the fashion and movie industry for causing poor body image in women.

    To me, that sounds on the low side. A good rule of thumb is if your waist measurement is less than half your height, you don't need to lose weight. So if your waist is less than 30.5 inches, you are fine.

    You are a perfect weight. I envy you, honestly. I can't maintain a weight that low. Don't worry. Eat healthy and get exercise.
