21M with prehypertension

GCASTILLEJR

Hi y'all,

My name's Greg and I'm from Houston, TX. Currently attending Texas A&M University studying Early Childhood Education.
As the subject says, I suffer from prehypertension because of water retention and am looking for some suggestions on ways to help keep my blood pressure down.

I used to be on medicine in high school, but the doctor took me off when I came to college. I try to track my numbers and stay on top of it. But with all I do, its still isn't enough. A side effect of coming off of the medicine was weight gain (the water pill was a dietary supplement). Hence the crazy amount of weight I've gained in four years of college.
