Maintain your weight? I'm not trying to act like your mom, but i know a 12 year old that is super thin and about 4'9'' and weighs 90 pounds! Its good to gain weight, just as you grow and at a slow, steady pace. If you continue to grow and stay at 88 pounds, you will not have the energy or health you want. Trust me, it isnt healthy to be that thin. Try to build muscle, so your still thin but a little stronger and heavier. You'll look better if you arent so small.

This is stupid, just really stupid. And sad. I really hope you aren't serious. I really doubt you can "maintain" that weight whenever your body needs every single calorie it can get. I can't grasp this mental thing about girls and weight. When I was 16 I worried about my weight, but now at 24 I am not just dying to be thin anymore. I have a husband and son, and weight is only a number.

if you get any thinner you are in danger of DYING. unless you have an extremely overactive metabolism, you need to start eating. I have not met a guy EVER who thought skin and bones was sexy, they're afraid of snapping you in half. Please please gain some weight and you'll actually look better. Do this by eating a balanced diet throughout the day.

Your 5'5" and your only 88 lbs? Thats not healthy at all. You need to see your doctor asap because this is just not normal and definately not healthy.

You must look like a stick. Eat some more. I doubt guys will like a girl who looks anorexic. Curves and thick legs are sexier ;-)
