Sadly parvo survivors usually have life time health issues. It sounds like that's what's going on.

Is she a healthy weight, or does her weight dip considerably when she's "less filled out"?

Have you talked to a vet about this?

I agree, Parvo survivors do tend to have a hard time rebounding, Be sure to feed a high quality puppy food, check the feeding instructions to be sure you are feeding the right amount and a blood panel at your local vet to check for any underlying organ issues is a good idea. After pulling through parvo, you don't want to take chances now.
I really hope she does well for you.
