Answers:

not to b mean or anything but yes .u should start eating healthy and run exercising get moving
Maybe just slightly. My husband is 5'10" and weighs about the same and he is slightly over-weight
Yeah, it's kind of overweight. I was close to that awhile ago, though I'm an inch taller. It's not gigantic but it's also not healthy.
No offense but yes, if ur a girl u need to lose around 80-90 pounds.

Water is important for effective weight loss and fat burning for
the following reasons:

* Not drinking enough water causes you to retain water and look
fatter than you actually are.

* Being thirsty causes you to feel fake hunger and eat more.

* Drinking water aids digestion and the fat burning process.

* Drinking water helps you to flush fat out of your body.

* Drinking water helps to remove toxins from your body and keep it clean and healthy.
it depends on how much muscle you have. You sounds like you may be overweight, but not that much. Some exercising and dieting will do just fine. My friend was 318 pounds and 5 foot 3 inches and went down to 170 pounds in a year.
no because your very tall..
well at 5'8" and 240 that is alot of wieght to cary well it depends how much fat percentage you have? but unless your like really buff like i mean body building status at 240 and 5'8" then you mostlikely are overwieght because i my self am 5'9" and weigh 175 and im buff nut a lil chuby and ya lol work on it just hit up cardio and hit the wieghts if u need help on losing wight let me know i use to weight 220 and i was only 5'5" and lost it all!
Yes I'm afraid so. But it also can depend on how much muscle you have. I think you should try to lose some weight to be healthy. Since you are probably a fuller build, I think that a weight about 150-160 as long as you don't have any health problems would be better. I wish you the best of luck.
first of all how old are you??
if u are about 10-30 years old.. u are fat..
do the calculation. Although it doesn't work for some athletes-they come up as obese even though they aren't.

Yes. You should be like 160-170 pound.
Yes, you are. No, 5'8" is not "very" tall as someone answered. No matter if you are a guy or girl, you are OBESE.

You should weigh no more than 150 lbs. if you're a girl and no more than 160 lbs. if you're a guy.

You need to lose between 80-90 lbs.
