At 115 pounds, you probably dont need to lose any weight. Your body has a set point where it says "ok..im comfortable at this weight, dont lose anymore". if you have been working out, it could be muscle. or you could be depriving yourself so much that your body is holding onto calories instead of burning them. Idk..you didn't give that much info

I think you need to go see a doctor and have him tell you what your weight should be at.. 115 pounds sounds way to thin for me unless your 5.

According to your past posts your 16 (17 now?) and 5' tall, so 115 is not bad, but I don't think 105 or so would be bad for you either. 

But you have to remember as a teenager you'r body is still growing in many ways.  You may never grow taller, but your hips may be getting a bit wider, your bones are getting denser, and you may be getting chestier. 

Your body may not be willing to give up the weight right now.  So why not work on being fit and healthy and not worry about the scales so much. 

If you are 16 or 17, you are still growing just a little bit.  You will get hips and you will fill out a bit more on top. 

Hooray for womanly curves.  Really and truly. 

Lay off the scale and focus on being healthy!

Yeah I think it's just your homones it's actually very common for girls to gain weight in their teens. Just continue to exerscise, eat healthy, lot's of fresh fruit veggies lean protein. And don't give up ever because I went through the same thing and as annoying as it is our bodies will continue to change and develop.
