Very much: Your ideal weight should be about 110 lbs which makes you very obese. You need to be examined to see whether you have other medical issues such as underactive thyroid,diabetes,hypertension,etc and then referred to a registered dietician or weight loss clinic for aggressive treatment of your obesity. You may eventually be recommended to have gastric bypass surgery or banding if deemed advisable.
