Skipping meals, purging, and obsessively weighing yourself is not healthy. You should avoid the scale as best as you can if it triggers you into wanting to lose more weight. You are at a healthy weight now, yes? Eating healthfully and living an active lifestyle can be the best feeling in the world. Please do not sacrifice your health for anything. Your boyfriend seems to be very supportive of you! He would not like to see you slip either. Perhaps talking to him about your concerns can help, so he is aware of what you are going through and be there for you when you need it. It's difficult going through what you have gone through alone- thankfully there's no need to as long as you aren't staying silent.

As long as you're eating healthfully and exercising in moderation, there's no need for you to become a slave to your scale.
