High blood pressure

Hi all. I'm in my early forties, and my blood pressure is starting to get high. Not too high for medication, but I need to start doing something about it. My doctor has suggested losing 15-20 pounds. I'm currently around 195lbs.

I do excersise quite regularly, but I know I need to really focus on better eating.

I'd love to hear from people who have been successful in bringing down their blood pressure with the help of MFP.
