JPEGs are a "lossy" file format. Every time you save a jpeg, it compresses the file and you lose data. If you want to keep your data intact, use psd or tif file formats. psd (photoshop native) is fairly large, but you won't lose anything. Tiff offers some compression, but it's a "lossless" format, so you lose nothing when you save.
