What Causes Tingling And Numbness In Hands And Arms?

I was never officially diagnosed with Atrial fibrillation but every day my hands and arms will go numb at least once or twice. They have the tingles feeling and takes a little bit before the tingling stops. I work every day and do not have any weakness in my arms. I am slightly overweight I am supposed to be around 280 and I weigh 340. It happens almost every morning and through out the day.
