The latest findings suggest that normal blood pressure for anyone should be less than 140/90. Any blood pressure that stays higher than that for a prolonged period can cause problems that can lead to heart disease and stroke. Many people have fluctuations in their B/P that cause it to be higher or lower at times depending on activites, but a consistantly high B/P should be treated medically before problems arise.

Probably too high.
There are two components to your blood pressure...systolic and diastolic. The upper number should be under 130 and the lower number under 80. That's for everyone....not just lawyers. :-)
The higher those numbers are the more likely you are to suffer from heart disease, stroke, and all sorts of unpleasant things.
Your weight is at a good level, but you need to exercise regularly, watch your diet, and keep an eye on your blood pressure. Statistically, you've got factors which increase your likelihood of having high blood presure.
