Don't listen to other people, there is no way 240 is a healthy weight for a guy that's 6'2 unless he's in the NFL.. and then he's all muscle. Actually 200 is really the sweet spot for someone our height, assuming you put on some muscle from workouts. That's just my opinion, though.
Yep mine too. My father had 2 heart attacks at 40 and 42, 6'0 200 lbs.. my grandpa has had a triple bypass, his dad died from a heart attack, diabetes is pretty rampant through my mom's side of my family, etc etc. The medical reasons weren't what motivated me initially but now I use that to help keep me going. I love when I go to the doctor and my BP is 115/75, and heart rate at rest is 62. I don't like the number on the scale still but that's a life journey.

I've been lifting weights about 3 days a week since I started almost months ago. I notice a difference already and so does the Mrs. 10 minutes of jump rope a day helps a lot too along with healthier eating habits.

Strange thing was when I went to the doc last month after losing 15 pounds my BP was like 150/80 
I was like wtf! I know it's diff from person to person but 150/80 after losing 15 pounds? Checking with him next month to follow up but he sounded pleased with my progress.
