    May I suggest you discuss this with your doctor or nutritionist?

    88 lbs is, in my opinion, way too low. Not having enough fat (brown fat, which coats your organs as opposed to yellow fat which is stored as extra energy) can lead to kidney and liver failure, and is very hard on your heart.

    Right now, your BMI is in the normal range.

    These are my two cents worth of opinion, but really you should talk to a doctor about your goals.
  • I really think you need to rethink your goal. 88 lbs????????
  • I dont know what bring you to this point in your life. But you need to speak to your doctor. Your height and weight is fine. When I see things like this I have to ask, how much do you love yourself? Again, go see your doctor.

    Sounds like concentration-camp thin. My daughter looks good at 5'0", varying between 100-110.
