Normal: If your weight was always exactly the same I would want to make sure you weren't a robot. (Not really) It is normal to have minor weight flucuations. But it looks like you only weigh 88 pounds - do you just have a tiny stature or are you underweight?

Ascertain BMI: Agree with Dr. Fowler. You should figure out your BMI and try to maintain it between 18.5 and 24.5. Go to this site for a BMI calculator. https://www.calculator.net/bmi-calculator.html Have a healthy diet, exercise 30 minutes/day, drink plenty of water, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. For nutrition: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/. Get HPV vaccine. Wish you good health!
