Apparently Chisato gained some weight this past year and got up to 49kg (~110lbs) and was dieting the past few months because she didn't want her fans to think that "this is what a former idol one year after disbanding looks like..." So she lost about 6.5kg and is at 42.5kg (93 lbs).

Uhh... Both of those weights seem painfully low but I guess I'm looking it from it as an American?
