hello valeria

 

Your information is a bit confusing. Did you mean 5'8''? If you are 6'8'' are you actually 227? If you are really 6'8'' and 127 pounds then I would suggest seeing a doctor so they can assess how best to get you back up to the proper weight.

I hope this was helpful

sorry for the delay
