Yeah, I'm 6' tall and I've fluctuated by around 15lb (between 155lb and 170lb) between 18 and 30yo (now) - I was under 160lb when 18 and am currently there now. The difference was muscle (going to the gym lots) so I had extra muscle to carry around the extra weight. I cannot imagine the stress of carting it around in fat with the same skinny ass muscles I have now.
