What Causes Consistent High Pulse Rate?

I am taking a beta blocker combines with lisinprol. My blood pressure is pretty much normal but my pulse during the day is in the 90's. I am not sedentary but weigh 202 pounds for 5 foot 6. Most people looking at me guess I am 160 lbs. I am trying to lose weight but I am concerned about the high consistant pulse.

Dear Sir/ Madam
Thanks for your query to us.
Each and every individual has a unique normal range of pulse rate as per their body. This may range from 60-100. Even pulse rate outside this range is not essentially abnormal. You should only be concerned if you have certain symptoms attributable to this rate or this rate has risen significantly in recent past. In such a case discuss with your GP and get examined.
Sincerely
