At 6 feet tall since I was in my teens I was,for years,in the vicinity of 170 (after BCT) to 180 (in my early 40’s).Then my hip went bad,I found it difficult to exercise and got as high as 240.Since then I've lost,and gained,and lost again a lot of weight and am currently at 190,which is close to a “normal” weight for me.Today,my blood sugars are (much) better,my blood pressure is (much) better and,overall,I feel *much* better than I did at 240.

I couldn’t break above 196 all the way through my 30’s. Then I hit the mid-40’s and slowly have been gaining, up to my high of 247. Have lost almost 10 lbs since then, and am aiming at 200-205, which puts me in the low “overweight” category of BMI.
