Hi everyone

I gained about 25 lbs last year and I managed to lose 10 lbs so far (yay!)
The funny thing is my blood pressure has always been on the low side (between 80/50 and 90/60) but I've been wondering if that's normal for someone who's gained a lot of weight.

I don't think I'm really anemic. I mean, I feel slightly light headed sometimes if I don't get to eat for a few hours after a hard workout but I'm guessing that's kinda normal..
And I do have a hard time getting up in the morning than most people but that's about it.

I heard some people have low blood pressure with no symptoms like me but I guess I just thought that after gaining weight my BP would naturally go up too.

I'm not really concerned or anything just curious if there are other people like me out there :)

    My weight has never affected my low BP. It's always been around 100/60 or 90/60. I think everyone is different though. Your light-headedness not eating after a workout could be from lack of food or low blood sugar.

    If you're concerned, give your doctor a call.
