yeah, if I weighed that, I'd be a stick. Tyra weighed about that when she was modeling, if that tells you anything.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
At my skinniest, I was 6' 3" and 130#. (This was when I was in high school.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
40lbs is a big weight advantage to have over someone in a physical confrontation, whether you're 230 or 130.
