lol i doubt it :P as long as you are healthy and your weight doesnt negatively affect your skating then i think the weight is fine. i know many very tiny skaters who are equally as good as the more solidly built skaters... i think people put too much emphasis on weight to be honest.....
if you're happy and healthy and feel good, then i think its up to you.

I think that as long as a skater has a healthy body weight that they can do well in skating, any skater who is very overweight or very underweight is usually not a very good skater, but by calculating your BMI (which you can do at www.kidshealth.com) you can get a good idea of what a healthy person should weight. There are no specific rules that I know about weight in figure skating.
