I went to my doctors last night for a routine check up; I'm on the contraceptive pill so I need to do this regularly. I found out that my blood pressure has now dropped considerably to finally land in the healthy zone. It's been high for at least 4 years.

That means far me to me than anything the scales may say. I'm actually over the moon!

So for those people that don't always see the result they want on the scale, don't give up. There are other benefits to these lifestyle changes (far more important ones too) that you are not always able to see. :smile:

    that is awesome. Blood pressure is a big deal. It runs in my family and I am very likely to get it. My mum has it, and I had it when pregnant. Healthy living definitly helps prevent it and manage it if it comes anyway.

    That's awesome! That's what I'm really hoping for too--some good results at my next doctor's visit. Thanks for the reminder to stay focused.
