I backed up this mysql database through cpanel and saved it on my hard drive.
Now Im reimporting back in cpanel and it takes me to a white page that says "Restoring Database" then has all the scripts below that.

After its done, I check the size of the database through cPanel by clicking on mysqldatabases and it says its 35mb when the original size was 66mb

I have reimported it many times and I got as high as 55mb. Everytime I import it I get a different size.

What is the problem?

Try restoring it via phpMyAdmin, that tends to be much more reliable.
