I'm 5'7 and135 lbs. is this a good weight?

It is perfect: Your weight should be between 135 to 140 pounds. If you feel and look good, stay at 135, because it is easier to gain but much harder to lose weight after you have gained it. It will increase itself as you get a few years past 40 years of age!
