    You can definitely do this. One step at a time. Don't beat you up, just start where you are with what you have. Move a little bit every day. Eat a little less. You definitely don't deserve hypertension and you can stop it in its tracks. Add me if you'd like.

    Now you are ready for that life change. Slow and easy. The weight didn't go on over night and it is not going to come off over night. BUT YOU CAN DO THIS!
