i would suggest that you lose weight. Unless, of course, that weight is muscle mass. Maybe start with a real attainable goal..could be to get down to 200 in 6 or 8 or 10 weeks. Whatever. As long as you are losing the weight, your body will thank you. Because you are young i think it is quite possible for you to get down to 160-170 and keep it there for the long haul, but don't worry about this yet. Only have 5 lbs in your mind at a time, otherwise you'll drive yourself crazy.

Hope this helps and feel free to reply with any questions or concerns.
