I've lost 50 lbs total so far and have 20 more to go but yesterday I went to the doctor and for the first time in about 5 years my blood pressure was 111/80!!!! My body is responding to the weight loss finally. I had a blood pressure of 140/90 at 23 years old and was on beta blockers and now been off meds with normal blood pressure. So cool to see you can take your health in your own hands and your body will respond!

Awesome...that's the one thing I haven't been able to fix with diet and exercise. I've put all of my other health markers back into the optimal range, but I'm still hypertensive. Doctor thinks at this point that it's mostly hereditary with me...two years now into good livin' and I've been able to reduce my medication dosage, but that's it.
Congrats...very awesome.0 -
