Statistically, for someone of European descent a BMI > 30 (Asian > 28, Polynesian >32) carries an increased risk of premature cardiovascular disease, (Heart attacks, strokes), Maturity Onset diabeties, and a number of cancers, e.g: cancer of oesophagus, bowel, pancreas, kidney and (yes, even in men) breast cancer.

Those are the stats.
