99.5 lbs, in case you're thinking I'm only skin and bones then no I'm not -.-
And since you were taking about weigh as in mass of a person, you do know it remains the same whatever the gravitational field is? o.0

Weight does not equal mass. Weight is a measure of the force on an object due to gravity whereas mass is a measure of the quantity of matter in an object. They are two commonly conflated terms, but that does not change the fact that you are incorrect.

I attend school, I do know weight does not equal mass. -.-
How do I stand incorrect when I said mass doesn't change with gravity?
What I wanted to say was that mass would remain the same whether we are on moon or on earth so there is no question of mass "against the gravitational field on earth".

Attending school makes you neither knowledgeable nor correct concerning anything. You said that weight is the same as mass. See below. The OP never mentioned mass in the title or the actual text of his post. He mentioned weight. Your previous comment implied that you believe mass an weight are the same thing. However, despite the fact that wasn't your intention, you are still in the wrong for calling out the OP when he was correct.
