Whoa- I can't remember when I weighed 120... junior high? IIRC 180 as a H.S. Senior.
117 lbs at age 17 when I graduated HS (1968 turned 18 later in November). 150lbs with a 28 inch waist at age 30.

6 feet tall. Fighting now to get under 200, both ring and shoe sizes went from 10.5 to 13 between 30 and 60 years age.

Snatched the rear end of a Ford Maverick off the ground (both rear wheels) when I was 23 and weighed 135-40. I had just finished welding a whole rear clip on the car testing for squeaks and rattles, probably 6 times my body weight. No fuel in gas tank.
